Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

What is Lotus Sametime Advanced?

IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced works with a Lotus Sametime Standard deployment to extend the infrastructure and features. For organizations that need advanced collaboration, within specific departments or across the entire global enterprise, Lotus Sametime Advanced makes it easy to find information and share expertise, engage in ongoing conversations, share your desktop instantaneously for collaboration or help desk support, and automatically store and reuse geographic location information. v Persistent Group Chat Rooms Users can create, enter, and read/contribute to ongoing chats at any time Users can be alerted to new content, events, and people in the chat room Users can participate from the Lotus Sametime Connect client or a browser Persistent Chat Rooms can be linked to Broadcast Channels v Real-time Broadcast Channels Broadcast Announcements: real-time alerts can be sent to channel subscribers Instant Poll: subscribers can create and respond to real-time polls Skill Tap: subscribers can find and interact with experts; expert responses can be saved and retrieved Broadcast Chat: invite members of a broadcast community to an online group conversation v Location services Server-stored locations Ability to see the last time and location from which an offline colleague was last online v Instant Share: share or remotely control a computer screen with colleagues Component applications Lotus Sametime Advanced operates with several component applications, which may be installed on different computers to distribute the load: v LDAP directory An LDAP directory stores information about all of your users so that they can be authenticated at login and their data (such as buddy lists) can be properly tracked. You must have an LDAP directory installed and configured before you attempt to deploy Lotus Sametime Advanced because you will need to configure several fields and port settings either while installing Lotus Sametime Advanced, or immediately afterward (the LDAP directory is not included with Lotus Sametime Advanced software components). v Lotus Sametime Standard and Lotus Sametime Connect client Lotus Sametime Standard provides the base instant-messaging features used in the deployment; users access both Lotus Sametime Standard and Lotus Sametime Advanced by means of the Lotus Sametime Connect client (or a Copyright IBM Corp. 2007, 2010

browser for persistent group chat). You must have the Lotus Sametime Standard community server installed and configured before you attempt to deploy Lotus Sametime Advanced, because you will need to reference the Lotus Sametime Standard community server host name and HTTP port when installing Lotus Sametime Advanced. v DB2 relational database system Two databases are used in a Lotus Sametime Advanced deployment: one (called "STADV" in this documentation) stores data related to the function of Lotus Sametime Advanced itself; another (called "BRKRDB" in this documentation) stores messaging-related data for use by WebSphere Event Broker. You must have DB2 installed, and these databases created, before you attempt to deploy Lotus Sametime Advanced, because you will establish connections to the databases during the Lotus Sametime Advanced and the WebSphere Event Broker installations. v Websphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker work together to improve the performance and security of communications between applications; that is why they must always be installed on the same server. WebSphere MQ provides configuration and queuing support for messaging, while WebSphere Event Broker provides broadcast capabilities by means of a "message flow" whose definition tells the broker what port listen on, and what to do with incoming messages.

Installing Lotus Sametime Advanced

You can install IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced using a single server or a clustered deployment; the procedures are the same for both releases. A single-server deployment can consist of all prerequisite applications hosted on the same computer as Lotus Sametime Advanced, or of one computer hosting Lotus Sametime Advanced plus one or more additional computers hosting the other applications. A clustered deployment uses the IBM WebSphere Application Server network deployment to distribute and manage multiple instances of Lotus Sametime Advanced. Your deployment needs will depend on the amount of resources available and the number of users you anticipate supporting. Note: If you install Lotus Sametime Advanced using the single-server deployment, you will not be able to easily convert it to a clustered deployment later; if you anticipate an increase in capacity needs in the near future, you may want to deploy a minimally sized cluster instead. It is recommended that you initially deploy Lotus Sametime Advanced in a cluster, even if it only contains a single node, as it will be easier to later add additional nodes. Select a deployment and follow the instructions to install and configure Lotus Sametime Advanced:

Installing Lotus Sametime Advanced on a single server

Select a method for installing the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced server software as a single-server deployment. Linux users can run a simplified install using the archive installation program, which automatically installs and configures prerequisite components, along with Lotus Sametime Advanced, on a single computer. Using the graphical installation program lets you decide which computers should host the various applications used in the deployment, but requires you to install and configure them. There are two ways to install the Lotus Sametime Advanced server software: Running the archive installer on Linux:

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

Linux users can run an archive installer to automatically install and configure IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced as a single-server deployment. This feature is available only for the Red Hat and SuSE operating systems. Before you begin The archive installer is intended for pilot and proof-of-concept use only. Installing all of these components on a single server is not recommended for a production environment because you will not be able to support a large number of users. IBM makes the archive file available to you for downloading; you then run the archive installer on Linux to install and configure Lotus Sametime Advanced, plus related applications, on a single computer. Note: This procedure assumes you have installed one of the following Linux operating systems on your computer: v Linux RHEL AS xSeries 4.0 Update 4 v SuSE Linux Enterprise Server xSeries 10.0 SP1 You will also need to ensure that python and python xml tools have been installed, as these may not be installed default in SuSE. About this task The archive install automatically installs and configures the following components in addition to the Lotus Sametime Advanced application itself: v IBM DB2 Enterprise Server Edition Attention: This installer automatically creates a two databases: CHATS is created for use with Lotus Sametime Advanced; whenever instructions or examples in this documentation refer to the database named STADV, you will work with the CHATS database instead. BRKRDB is created for use with IBM WebSphere Event Broker; if the instructions refer to the BRKRDB database, then you should use that name. If you change these database names yourself, then be sure to note down the new names and use them later. v IBM HTTP Server v IBM WebSphere MQ v IBM WebSphere Event Broker You must already have a supported LDAP directory installed, and will be required to configure it during the archive installation. Set up and run the archive installer by following these procedures: 1. (Linux RHEL only) Disable SELinux on any RedHat operating system: a. Log in as root on the Linux RedHat server where you will install Lotus Sametime Advanced. b. c. d. e. f. Open the /etc/selinux/config file for editing. Locate the SELINUX setting. Change its value to either disable or permissive. Save and close the file. Restart the Linux server.

Chapter 3. Installing

2. Log in as root on the computer where you will install Lotus Sametime Advanced. 3. Download the archive installer package to the /opt directory. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document posted at the following Web address: www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149. You will need at least 15GB of free space in the directory where you store the archive installation file; the installation itself requires 6GB space. 4. Extract the archive installer using the following command:tar -xvzpf file_name.tar.gz

5. Navigate to the directory containing the extracted archive installer:

cd /opt/Applianceware

6. Run the installation with the following command:

./install.sh

The archive installer begins: As the installer runs, you will be prompted to enter information about your deployment. 7.

Installing DB2 Net Search Extender: Install IBM DB2 Net Search Extender to support text retrieval by concurrent IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced users. Before you begin Make sure you have a DB2 server installed before you begin. About this task Install DB2 Net Search Extended on the DB2 server by following these steps: 1. Log in to your computer as the system administrator (Microsoft Windows) or as root (IBM AIX, Linux, Solaris).Chapter 3. Installing

In the information center, search for the following text to locate installation instructions: "Installing Net Search Extender". 4. Accept the default values and settings while installing Net Search Extender. 5. When installation is finished, start Net Search Extender by running the following command in the DB2 environment:db2text start

What to do next Attention: DB2 Net Search Extender must be running to support Lotus Sametime Advanced operations. If you stop this service for any reason, be sure to restart it. To remove the need for manual restarts, you may want to set this service to start automatically: v AIX, Linux, Solaris: Add the text indexing service startup to the database startup script. v Windows: Set the "DB2EXT" service to "Automatic" in the Windows Services control panel. Creating the WebSphere Event Broker database: Use IBM DB2 to create a database for storing IBM WebSphere Event Broker data. Before you begin The WebSphere Event Broker database contains Broker-specific system configuration information that is added or modified whenever a broker is created or configured. You can define your own names for this database using 8 characters or less; in the examples presented in this documentation, the Event Broker database is named "BRKRDB". 1. Log in to the DB2 server as the DB2 Administrator (or as a user in the DB2ADMNS group). 2. Open a DB2 command window. For example, in Windows, click Start Programs IBM DB2 DB2COPY1 (default) Command Line Tools Command Window . 3. Run the following command to create the WebSphere Event Broker database (called "BRKRDB" in this documentation):DB2 CREATE DATABASE database_name USING CODESET UTF-8 TERRITORY US

For example:DB2 CREATE DATABASE BRKRDB USING CODESET UTF-8 TERRITORY US

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

Use IBM DB2 to create a database for storing IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced data. Before you begin The Lotus Sametime Advanced database requires a DB2 database to store information. In the examples presented in this documentation, the Lotus Sametime Advanced database is named STADV. About this task Create the database directly on the DB2 server using the provided script. 1. Download the appropriate versions of the scripts for your operating system to the DB2 server. The scripts are stored in the \SupportingFile\DB2-image\db2-scripts directory within the Lotus Sametime Advanced software download; be sure to take all of the files for your operating system. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document atwww.ibm.com/support/ docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149. 2. Verify that you are working in DB2 as the DB2 Administrator (or as a user in the DB2ADMNS group). 3. (AIX, Linux, Solaris) Assign execute privileges to the createDb.sh file by running the following command:chmod +x createDb.sh

4. In the DB2 environment, create the database by running the script as follows: AIX, Linux, Solaris./createDb.sh database_name

WindowscreateDb.bat database_name

where database_name is the name of the Lotus Sametime Advanced database (in this documentation, examples will use "STADV" as that database's name). For example:./createDb.sh STADV

Attention: Do not use the same name as the host name for this computer, as that would create conflicts. This script creates the new database and sets up the schema and tables needed for Lotus Sametime Advanced. Creating text indexes for searching the Lotus Sametime Advanced database: Create indexes in an IBM DB2 database hosted on either Microsoft Windows or Linux. Before you begin You must have installed the IBM DB2 server software and DB2 Net Search Extender, then started those applications, created a database, and set up the database schema. The DB2 command window should still be open from the previous task (open it if necessary).

Chapter 3. Installing

21

About this task Note: If the indexes should become corrupted, you can safely rerun the dbtext script at any time without losing any existing data. 1. Download the appropriate version of the dbtext script for your operating system to the DB2 server. This script is stored in the \SupportingFiles directory within the Lotus Sametime Advanced software download. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document at www.ibm.com/support/ docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149. 2. In the DB2 Command Window, run the following command to create the text indexes: AIX, Linux, Solaris./dbtext.sh database_name

Windowsdbtext.bat database_name

where database_name is the name of the Lotus Sametime Advanced database ("STADV" in this documentation). If you see an error stating that "DB2TEXT" is not a recognized command, make sure that DB2 Net Search Extender has been installed and is running. 3. Once the script successfully completes, you can disconnect from the database with the following command:DB2 DISCONNECT STADV

4. Now type the following command in the DB2 Command Window: 5. Close the DB2 Command Window. Installing the DB2 client: If an application requires access to a remote IBM DB2 database, install the DB2 Client application and then catalog the remote database. Before you begin IBM WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker require a connection to the database used for storing messaging information (called "BRKRDB" in this documentation). If the BRKRDB database is on a remote server, you must install the DB2 client on the server hosting WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker, and then catalog the database from the client to ensure access. The Lotus Sametime Advanced server does not require the DB2 client, even when DB2 is hosted on a separate computer (because the use of JDBC type 4 drivers removes the need for a DB2 client to access the remote DB2 server). 1. Log in to your computer as the system administrator (Microsoft Windows) or as root (IBM AIX, Linux, Solaris). 2. Download the appropriate package for your operating system, and extract the files.

Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document posted at the following Web address: www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149. 3. Install the DB2 client as explained in the DB2 information center at the following Web address:http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9/index.jsp

In the information center, search for the following text to locate installation instructions: "Installing DB2 clients". 4. Accept default values and settings during installation. 5. When the installation is complete, catalog the DB2 database by running the following commands in the DB2 Command Window:db2 catalog tcpip node node_name remote server_dns_name server server_port db2 catalog database database_name at node node_name

where: v node_name is any eight-character name you want to assign to the node, as in: myDB2svr (simply make up a name) v server_dns_name is the fully qualified domain name of the remote database server, as in: db2server.acme.com v server_port is the port on which DB2 is installed; this is normally port 50000 (Microsoft Windows) or 50001 (IBM AIX, Linux, and Sun Solaris) v database_name is the name of the database to be used for WebSphere Event Broker (BRKRDB in this documentation). Example:db2 catalog tcpip node DBSRV remote sales.acme.com server 50000 db2 catalog db BRKRDB at node DBSRV

Note: If you catalog the database using an alias, that name must match the database name already used on the DB2 server. In the examples in this documentation, the database name is BRKRDB, so the alias name would also be BRKRDB. Installing WebSphere MQ: IBM WebSphere MQ provides messaging across multiple platforms, allowing independent applications on a distributed system to communicate with each other. Before you begin WebSphere MQ enables information packaged as messages to flow between different business applications. There are two ways in which WebSphere MQ can act on messages: v Message routing performs a defined set of operations on a message, applying them in a prescribed sequence, to route them from sender to recipient. v Message transformation modifies messages by changing, combining, adding, or removing data; for example to change the format to accommodate the recipient's requirements. About this task If you already installed WebSphere MQ, you do not have to install it again for a new Lotus Sametime Advanced deployment. If you uninstalled Lotus Sametime Advanced and are installing a newer version, you should have removed the broker

Unless the domain has imposed restrictions on local user accounts, you can simply click Cancel at this point, and consider your WebSphere MQ installation complete. Clicking the More Information button provides the following details to help you determine how to respond and complete this screen. When WebSphere MQ is running, it must check that only authorized users can access queue managers or queues. Whenever any user attempts such access, WebSphere MQ uses its own local account to query information about the user. Domain controllers that are running Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2003 Server, or later, can be set up in such a way that WebSphere MQ cannot use local accounts to check that users defined on those domains are authorized to access queue managers or queues. In this case, you must provide WebSphere MQ with a special domain user account to use. If you are unsure whether this case applies to you, you should consult your domain administrator. If a special domain user account is required, send the "Configuring Windows Accounts" page to your domain administrator, and ask for one of the special accounts it describes. Enter the account details into the Prepare WebSphere MQ Wizard. This wizard runs automatically at the end of installation; the wizard can also be run at any time from the Start menu. Restriction: If the special domain user account is required but you carry on anyway and configure WebSphere MQ without it, many or all parts of WebSphere MQ will not work, depending upon the particular user accounts involved. In particular, if you are currently logged on with a domain user account, you might not be able to complete the Default Configuration, and the Postcard and API Exerciser might not work.

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

What to do next Attention: DB2 Net Search Extender must be running to support Lotus Sametime Advanced operations. If you stop this service for any reason, be sure to restart it. To remove the need for manual restarts, you may want to set this service to start automatically: v AIX, Linux, Solaris: Add the text indexing service startup to the database startup script. v Windows: Set the "DB2EXT" service to "Automatic" in the Windows Services control panel. Creating the WebSphere Event Broker database: Use IBM DB2 to create a database for storing IBM WebSphere Event Broker data. Before you begin The WebSphere Event Broker database contains Broker-specific system configuration information that is added or modified whenever a broker is created or configured. You can define your own names for this database using 8 characters or less; in the examples presented in this documentation, the Event Broker database is named "BRKRDB". 1. Log in to the DB2 server as the DB2 Administrator (or as a user in the DB2ADMNS group). 2. Open a DB2 command window. For example, in Windows, click Start Programs IBM DB2 DB2COPY1 (default) Command Line Tools Command Window . 3. Run the following command to create the WebSphere Event Broker database (called "BRKRDB" in this documentation):DB2 CREATE DATABASE database_name USING CODESET UTF-8 TERRITORY US

For example:DB2 CREATE DATABASE BRKRDB USING CODESET UTF-8 TERRITORY US

Sample Output: DB20000I The CREATE DATABASE command completed successfully. Creating the Lotus Sametime Advanced database: Use IBM DB2 to create a database for storing IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced data. Before you begin The Lotus Sametime Advanced database requires a DB2 database to store information. In the examples presented in this documentation, the Lotus Sametime Advanced database is named STADV. About this task Create the database directly on the DB2 server using the provided script. 1. Download the appropriate versions of the scripts for your operating system to the DB2 server.

Chapter 3. Installing

55

The scripts are stored in the \SupportingFile\DB2-image\db2-scripts directory within the Lotus Sametime Advanced software download; be sure to take all of the files for your operating system. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document atwww.ibm.com/support/ docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149. 2. Verify that you are working in DB2 as the DB2 Administrator (or as a user in the DB2ADMNS group). 3. (AIX, Linux, Solaris) Assign execute privileges to the createDb.sh file by running the following command:chmod +x createDb.sh

4. In the DB2 environment, create the database by running the script as follows: AIX, Linux, Solaris./createDb.sh database_name

WindowscreateDb.bat database_name

where database_name is the name of the Lotus Sametime Advanced database (in this documentation, examples will use "STADV" as that database's name). For example:./createDb.sh STADV

Attention: Do not use the same name as the host name for this computer, as that would create conflicts. This script creates the new database and sets up the schema and tables needed for Lotus Sametime Advanced. Creating text indexes for searching the Lotus Sametime Advanced database: Create indexes in an IBM DB2 database hosted on either Microsoft Windows or Linux. Before you begin You must have installed the IBM DB2 server software and DB2 Net Search Extender, then started those applications, created a database, and set up the database schema. The DB2 command window should still be open from the previous task (open it if necessary). About this task Note: If the indexes should become corrupted, you can safely rerun the dbtext script at any time without losing any existing data. 1. Download the appropriate version of the dbtext script for your operating system to the DB2 server. This script is stored in the \SupportingFiles directory within the Lotus Sametime Advanced software download. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document at www.ibm.com/support/ docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149. 2. In the DB2 Command Window, run the following command to create the text indexes: AIX, Linux, Solaris

56

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

./dbtext.sh database_name

Windowsdbtext.bat database_name

where database_name is the name of the Lotus Sametime Advanced database ("STADV" in this documentation). If you see an error stating that "DB2TEXT" is not a recognized command, make sure that DB2 Net Search Extender has been installed and is running. 3. Once the script successfully completes, you can disconnect from the database with the following command:DB2 DISCONNECT STADV

4. Now type the following command in the DB2 Command Window: 5. Close the DB2 Command Window. Installing the DB2 client: If an application requires access to a remote IBM DB2 database, install the DB2 Client application and then catalog the remote database. Before you begin IBM WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker require a connection to the database used for storing messaging information (called "BRKRDB" in this documentation). If the BRKRDB database is on a remote server, you must install the DB2 client on the server hosting WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker, and then catalog the database from the client to ensure access. The Lotus Sametime Advanced server does not require the DB2 client, even when DB2 is hosted on a separate computer (because the use of JDBC type 4 drivers removes the need for a DB2 client to access the remote DB2 server). 1. Log in to your computer as the system administrator (Microsoft Windows) or as root (IBM AIX, Linux, Solaris). 2. Download the appropriate package for your operating system, and extract the files. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document posted at the following Web address: www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149. 3. Install the DB2 client as explained in the DB2 information center at the following Web address:http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9/index.jsp

In the information center, search for the following text to locate installation instructions: "Installing DB2 clients". 4. Accept default values and settings during installation. 5. When the installation is complete, catalog the DB2 database by running the following commands in the DB2 Command Window:db2 catalog tcpip node node_name remote server_dns_name server server_port db2 catalog database database_name at node node_name

where: v node_name is any eight-character name you want to assign to the node, as in: myDB2svr (simply make up a name)Chapter 3. Installing

57

v server_dns_name is the fully qualified domain name of the remote database server, as in: db2server.acme.com v server_port is the port on which DB2 is installed; this is normally port 50000 (Microsoft Windows) or 50001 (IBM AIX, Linux, and Sun Solaris) v database_name is the name of the database to be used for WebSphere Event Broker (BRKRDB in this documentation). Example:db2 catalog tcpip node DBSRV remote sales.acme.com server 50000 db2 catalog db BRKRDB at node DBSRV

Note: If you catalog the database using an alias, that name must match the database name already used on the DB2 server. In the examples in this documentation, the database name is BRKRDB, so the alias name would also be BRKRDB. Clustering WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker: Set up a clustered deployment of IBM WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker servers to improve the performance and security of messaging within an IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced clustered deployment. Before you begin A Lotus Sametime Advanced deployment requires a one-to-one relationship between installations of WebSphere Message Broker and WebSphere Event Broker, which is why they must be installed on the same server. Each of these servers can support only one broker for Lotus Sametime Advanced, which looks for the broker on a particular port (1506). A broker can support messaging for roughly 10-15 thousand users; if you foresee a larger number of users, you will probably want to deploy multiple WebSphere MQ/WebSphere Event Broker servers and then cluster them for efficiency. A traditional WebSphere MQ network uses distributed queues, where every queue manager is independent and queues are not shared. One queue manager can only send a message to another if a specific channel has been created between them. A WebSphere MQ cluster enables the queue managers to share queues and communicate directly, without the need for specific channel definitions between each pair of queue managers. In addition to clustering the queue managers (provided by WebSphere MQ), you can gather the brokers (provided by WebSphere Event Broker) into a different type of cluster, called a collective. The brokers within a collective are interconnected, share a single DB2 database (called "BRKRDB in this documentation), and are controlled by a single configuration manager. Using a collective improves messaging performance in several ways: v A message from a particular client is routed directly to the target broker, taking the shortest path and bypassing intermediate brokers. v A client can connect to the nearest broker within the collective instead of being assigned to a broker that may actually be located farther away. v The connections between the brokers in a collective are automatically tested for validity when the collective is created, which ensures that messages are always transported to their destinations and do not circle endlessly.

58

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

About this task Clustering WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker involves the following tasks: Installing component applications: The first task in clustering IBM WebSphere MQ servers and creating a broker collective is to install the component applications on every server in the cluster. Before you begin Install the following component applications on every server that will be a part of the WebSphere MQ cluster: v IBM DB2 client v WebSphere MQ v WebSphere Event Broker Note: Each server within the cluster requires a copy of the DB2 client application so that the broker services can access data stored in the database you created earlier. About this task To ensure that each server has all the necessary components set up before you configure the servers as a cluster, complete the following installation tasks (in the sequence shown) on every server in the WebSphere MQ cluster: Installing the DB2 client: If an application requires access to a remote IBM DB2 database, install the DB2 Client application and then catalog the remote database. Before you begin IBM WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker require a connection to the database used for storing messaging information (called "BRKRDB" in this documentation). If the BRKRDB database is on a remote server, you must install the DB2 client on the server hosting WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker, and then catalog the database from the client to ensure access. The Lotus Sametime Advanced server does not require the DB2 client, even when DB2 is hosted on a separate computer (because the use of JDBC type 4 drivers removes the need for a DB2 client to access the remote DB2 server). 1. Log in to your computer as the system administrator (Microsoft Windows) or as root (IBM AIX, Linux, Solaris). 2. Download the appropriate package for your operating system, and extract the files. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document posted at the following Web address: www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149. 3. Install the DB2 client as explained in the DB2 information center at the following Web address:http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9/index.jspChapter 3. Installing

59

In the information center, search for the following text to locate installation instructions: "Installing DB2 clients". 4. Accept default values and settings during installation. 5. When the installation is complete, catalog the DB2 database by running the following commands in the DB2 Command Window:db2 catalog tcpip node node_name remote server_dns_name server server_port db2 catalog database database_name at node node_name

where: v node_name is any eight-character name you want to assign to the node, as in: myDB2svr (simply make up a name) v server_dns_name is the fully qualified domain name of the remote database server, as in: db2server.acme.com v server_port is the port on which DB2 is installed; this is normally port 50000 (Microsoft Windows) or 50001 (IBM AIX, Linux, and Sun Solaris) v database_name is the name of the database to be used for WebSphere Event Broker (BRKRDB in this documentation). Example:db2 catalog tcpip node DBSRV remote sales.acme.com server 50000 db2 catalog db BRKRDB at node DBSRV

Note: If you catalog the database using an alias, that name must match the database name already used on the DB2 server. In the examples in this documentation, the database name is BRKRDB, so the alias name would also be BRKRDB. Installing WebSphere MQ: IBM WebSphere MQ provides messaging across multiple platforms, allowing independent applications on a distributed system to communicate with each other. Before you begin WebSphere MQ enables information packaged as messages to flow between different business applications. There are two ways in which WebSphere MQ can act on messages: v Message routing performs a defined set of operations on a message, applying them in a prescribed sequence, to route them from sender to recipient. v Message transformation modifies messages by changing, combining, adding, or removing data; for example to change the format to accommodate the recipient's requirements. About this task If you already installed WebSphere MQ, you do not have to install it again for a new Lotus Sametime Advanced deployment. If you uninstalled Lotus Sametime Advanced and are installing a newer version, you should have removed the broker services already and can simply configure them anew. Installing WebSphere MQ involves the following tasks: Installing the WebSphere MQ application: Install the IBM WebSphere MQ application to support messaging in your deployment.

Clicking the More Information button provides the following details to help you determine how to respond and complete this screen. When WebSphere MQ is running, it must check that only authorized users can access queue managers or queues. Whenever any user attempts such access, WebSphere MQ uses its own local account to query information about the user. Domain controllers that are running Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2003 Server, or later, can be set up in such a way that WebSphere MQ cannot use local accounts to check that users defined on those domains are authorized to access queue managers or queues. In this case, you must provide WebSphere MQ with a special domain user account to use. If you are unsure whether this case applies to you, you should consult your domain administrator.

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

If a special domain user account is required, send the "Configuring Windows Accounts" page to your domain administrator, and ask for one of the special accounts it describes. Enter the account details into the Prepare WebSphere MQ Wizard. This wizard runs automatically at the end of installation; the wizard can also be run at any time from the Start menu. Restriction: If the special domain user account is required but you carry on anyway and configure WebSphere MQ without it, many or all parts of WebSphere MQ will not work, depending upon the particular user accounts involved. In particular, if you are currently logged on with a domain user account, you might not be able to complete the Default Configuration, and the Postcard and API Exerciser might not work. e. If the "Prepare WebSphere MQ Wizard" screen prompts whether to Setup the Default Configuration, click Next to skip that task and finish the installation without setting up the default configuration. At this point, the WebSphere MQ application is installed, and you are ready to install the accompanying fix pack in the next task. Installing the WebSphere MQ fix pack: After installing the IBM WebSphere MQ application, install the fix pack to ensure the product is up-to-date. Before you begin After installing IBM WebSphere MQ, check the Lotus Sametime system requirements at the following Web address, and determine whether you need to install a fix pack:www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?&uid=swg27010738

What to do next You do not need to configure WebSphere MQ right now because it will be configured for you when you run the script that configures WebSphere Event Broker in a later task. Installing the WebSphere Event Broker application: IBM WebSphere Event Broker extends the reach, scope, and scale of the WebSphere MQ infrastructure, enabling the secure and seamless interaction of enterprise applications with thousands of users. The centralized administration of distributed brokers provided by WebSphere Event Broker improves the flexibility, security, and routing of messaging. About this task A Lotus Sametime Advanced deployment requires a one-to-one relationship between installations of WebSphere Message Broker and WebSphere Event Broker, and the two applications must be installed on the same computer. This deployment can support only one broker for Lotus Sametime Advanced, which specifically looks for the broker on port 1506. In addition, these components require access to the DB2 database; if the database is hosted on a different computer, you must install the DB2 client application on the same computer as WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker. If you already installed WebSphere Event Broker, you do not have to install it again for a new Lotus Sametime Advanced deployment. If you uninstalled Lotus Sametime Advanced and are installing a newer version, you should have removed the broker services already and can simply configure them anew. The procedure for installing WebSphere Event Broker varies with the operating system on which it will be hosted: Installing WebSphere Event Broker on AIX, Linux, Solaris: Install the IBM WebSphere Event Broker application on IBM AIX, Linux, or Solaris.Chapter 3. Installing

71

About this task Follow these steps to add supporting jar files to the system classpath. All of the jar files need to be available on the system classpath so that the event broker can be successfully configured for the real-time message flow on your server. In addition, the SametimePlusExits.jar file must be available on the system classpath to prevent runtime errors when the event broker is started. 1. Log on to the server as the Windows system administrator. 2. Add the following files to the CLASSPATH, keeping the statement on one line: List of files: v SametimePlusExits.jar v AddBroker.jar v commons-codec-1.3.jar v commons-httpclient-3.1.jar v commons-httpclient-contrib-3.1.jar v commons-logging-1.1.jar How they look on the CLASSPATH (this was formatted for readability, your CLASSPATH statement must be formatted as one line):existing_classpath_values ;%MQSIINSTALLPATH%\classes\AddBroker.jar ;%MQSIINSTALLPATH%\classes\SametimePlusExits.jar ;%MQSIINSTALLPATH%\classes\commons-codec-1.3.jar ;%MQSIINSTALLPATH%\classes\commons-httpclient-3.1.jar ;%MQSIINSTALLPATH%\classes\commons-httpclient-contrib-3.1.jar ;%MQSIINSTALLPATH%\classes\commons-logging-1.1.jar

where %MQSIINSTALLPATH% is the absolute path to your WebSphere Event Broker install location; for example:C:\Program Files\IBM\MQSI\6.0

Note: These jar files do not exist in the classes directory yet, when you run the configureEB.bat script in the next task; the files will be copied to your server for use during configuration. 3. Restart the server so these changes take effect before you configure WebSphere Event Broker. Creating a data source for the broker: If you are using Microsoft Windows 2003, then configuring IBM WebSphere Event Broker for use in a cluster involves defining a data source for the broker. About this task Follow these steps to create a data source. Note: This task is needed only on Windows 2003 server. If you are using a different operating system, skip this task. 1. Open the ODBC Tool by clicking Start Programs Administrative Tools DataSources (ODBC). 2. Click the System DSN - System Data Sources tab. 3. Click Add. 4. In the "Create New Data Source" dialog box, select IBM DB2 ODBC Driver -DB2COPY1 and then click Finish.

72

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

5. In the CLI/ODBC Settings dialog box, fill in values for the new data source, and then click OK:Option Data Source Name Description Databases User ID and Password Description BRKRDB MQSIBKDB DB2 ODBC Database STADV User name and password for the database, such as db2admin and passw0rd.

6. Still in the CLI/ODBC Settings dialog box, click Connect to test the connection. 7. When you have finished, close all of the ODBC dialog boxes. Setting up a MQ cluster and Event Broker collective: After installing IBM WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Event Broker on two or more servers, configure them as a WebSphere MQ cluster and then create a broker collective to improve messaging efficiency. A WebSphere MQ cluster consists of two or more servers, each hosting an instance of WebSphere MQ and an instance of WebSphere Event Broker. To avoid confusion with topics discussing WebSphere Application Server network deployment clusters, the topics on configuring a WebSphere MQ cluster use these terms to describe the servers that you will cluster: v Initial server: This is the server that will host the broker collective's configuration manager; you will create the WebSphere MQ cluster on this server and then add servers to the cluster. v Additional server: This represents any servers added to the cluster, regardless of how many there are. The tasks that apply to "Additional server" must be completed on every additional server, in the same sequence shown in the documentation. There can be only one Initial server, but there may be as many Additional servers as required; each Additional server must be installed on a separate computer because the broker uses port 1506. Important: Decide in advance how many servers will comprise the WebSphere MQ cluster, because you must complete certain tasks on each Additional server before proceeding to the next task on the Initial server. In addition, you cannot add servers to the cluster after you have created the broker collective in Step 6 below. General setup: Before configuring the MQ Cluster and Event Broker collective, you must complete some prerequisite database and server setup tasks. 1. Create the broker database. See Creating the WebSphere Event Broker database on page 20 for more detailed information. On the remote DB2 server, create the broker database: a. Open a DB2 command window. b. Create the broker database by entering the following line, replacing <BROKER_DATABASE_NAME> with a database name, such as BRKRDB:DB2 CREATE DATABASE <BROKER_DATABASE_NAME> USING CODESET UTF-8 TERRITORY USChapter 3. Installing

73

Note: If a previous broker database exists, you can remove it by entering DB2 DROP DATABASE <BROKER_DATABASE_NAME>. 2. On each server (initial and additional), install the following: v The DB2 client (for more information, see Installing the DB2 client on page 22. After you install the DB2 client, remember to catalog the Broker database.). v WebSphere MQ and any relevant fixpacks (as for a single node Event Broker install) v Event Broker (as for a single node Event Broker install) 3. On each server (initial and additional), perform the following configuration steps: v Configure the ODBC data source (Windows). a. Run the following command to enable the ODBC settings to take effect:db2set db2comm=TCPIP

b. In the Windows Start menu, select Start > Run... c. In the Run dialog, type odbcad32.exe. d. In the ODBC Data Source Administrator dialog, select the System DSN tab, then click Add. e. In the Create New Data Source dialog, select the IBM DB2 ODBC DRIVER - DB2COPY1 driver. Note the "DB2COPY1" part of the driver name may be different depending on how your installation was performed. f. In the ODBC IBM DB2 Driver - Add dialog, enter the following information: Data source name - The name which you cataloged the remote Broker database in the local DB2 client. Most likely, it is BRKRDB. Database alias - Leave this as is. Description - Free description text. You can enter, for example, ST Adv Event Broker Database. g. Click OK. h. In the ODBC Data Source Administrator dialog, you should see the newly created data source listed as a system DSN. Select it and click Configure... i. In the CLI/ODBC Settings dialog, enter the following information: User ID - The name of a user with access to the broker database (for example, db2admin). Password - The password of the user with access to the broker database (for example, db2password). Save password - Select this checkbox. j. Click Connect. A confirmation message displays. k. Click OK, and then OK again in the ODBC Data Source Administrator dialog v Configure the ODBC data source (Linux, Unix). a. Create a backup copy of /var/mqsi/odbc/.odbc.ini by copying it to .odbc.ini.orig. b. Edit .odbi.ini to contain:[ODBC Data Sources] BRKPERF=IBM DB2 ODBC DRIVER [BRKPERF]

c. Change BRKPERF to reflect your database name. d. Change the Driver to be correct for your platform: AIX: <DBINSTALLPATH>/lib32/libdb2.a Solaris, Linux: <DBINSTALLPATH>/lib32/libdb2.so e. Check to see that the other path references are correct for your deployment. v Copy the required JAR files on the server and set the class path. a. Locate the \SupportingFiles\EB-V60-image\st-adv-jars-EB directory within the Lotus Sametime Advanced software download. b. Copy the following JAR files from this location to the \6.0\classes directory underneath the WebSphere Event Broker installation directory. commons-codec-1.3.jar commons-httpclient-3.1.jar commons-httpclient-contrib-3.1.jar commons-logging-1.1.jar c. Download Hotfix # OBEN-7RJSFH and copy the following files from it (these replace any copies of the same files located in the \SupportingFiles\EB-V60-image\st-adv-jars-EB folder used in the previous step) and copy them to the same location (\6.0\classes): AddBroker.jar SametimePlusExits.jar exitSetting.ini d. On the Windows platform only, add the JAR files to the system class path. For information, refer to Adding jar files to the classpath on Windows on page 38. v Copy the exitSetting.ini file. a. Locate the \SupportingFiles\EB-V60-image\st-adv-jars-EB directory within the Lotus Sametime Advanced software download. b. Copy the exitSetting.ini files from this location to the \6.0\bin directory underneath the WebSphere Event Broker installation directory. c. Open the file in its new location using a text editor and change the following entries: servletURL - Change the host and port for this entry to the host and port where the Sametime Advanced server will be accessible. jsecurityURL - Change the host and port for this entry to the host and port where the Sametime Advanced server will be accessible. d. Save the changes to the file and close it. v Copy the BAR file on the server.

a. Locate the \SupportingFiles\EB-V60-image\st-adv-jars-EB directory within the Lotus Sametime Advanced software download. b. Copy the realtime1506.bar files from this location to the \6.0 directory underneath the WebSphere Event Broker installation directory. MQ Cluster and Event Broker Collective setup: Configure an IBM WebSphere MQ cluster and a WebSphere Event Broker collective. Before you begin The following instructions distinguish two types of servers: v The initial server hosting the configuration manager and the initial broker v The additional server(s) hosting additional brokers There can be only one initial server, but there may be as many additional servers as required. The instructions assume that each broker run on a different machine. It is not possible to run two brokers (for Lotus Sametime Advanced) on the same machine, as the 1506 port number is hard coded in the BAR file. As there are a number of instances (one per server) of certain items (such as brokers), the following conventions are used:Table 1. Broker naming conventions used in this topic Name HOSTNAMEn BRKR_SCCSn INTER_BROKER_PORTn Description The host name or IP address of server #n. The name of the broker on server #n. The inter broker communication port for broker #n. The name of the queue manager on server #n. Example broker2.mydomain.com BRKR_SCCS1 Typical value is 1507

SCCS.QUEUEn.MANAGER

SCCS.QUEUE2.MANAGER

The initial server is assumed to be server #1. The following commands must be typed into an Event (Message) Broker Command Console. It is recommended you disable firewalls on all servers running Event Broker while you are doing the setup. Once the setup is complete, you can enable them again. Important: The following instructions contain a number of steps. Each step involves running a number of commands on the different servers making up the broker collective. It is important to run the requested commands on all requested servers before moving on to the next step (rather than running all the steps on server 1, then running all the steps on server 2, and so on). Failure to complete each set of commands on the requested server as instructed will result in the collective not working properly. 1. Create the queue manager and listener.

...and on server #3:

4. Create the cluster sender channels. Note: The sender and receiver channels at both end of a connection (between the initial and an additional server) must have the same name. a. On the initial server, run the following commands once for every additional server: Note: Enter the DEFINE command on a single line, even if it displays here on two lines.

The name of the Queue SCCS.QUEUE1.MANAGER Manager on the initial server The host name of the initial server broker1.mydomain.com

For example, if you have 3 servers called broker1, broker2, and broker3, where broker1 is the initial server and broker2 and broker3 are additional servers, you will run the following commands: On server broker1 (the initial server):

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

Where:Name CONFIG_MANAGER_NAME SERVICE_USER_ID SERVICE_USER_PWD WORK_DIR Description The configuration manager name The service user ID The service user password The working directory for the config manager Example CMGR_SCCS mqsi password C:\Progra~1\IBM\MQSI\6.0\ wrkdir

Service user ID notes: v This can be specified in any valid user name syntax for the platform. If you use the unqualified form for this user ID (user name) on Windows systems, the operating system searches for the user ID throughout its domain, starting with the local system. This search might take some time to complete. v The ServiceUserID specified must be a member (either direct or indirect) of the local group mqbrkrs, and must be authorized to access the home directory (where WebSphere Message Broker has been installed), and the working directory (if specified by the -w flag). v This user ID must also be a member (either direct or indirect) of the local group mqm or of the local Windows Administrators group. For example, on server #1 (and never on the other servers), you will run: After creating the configuration manager, it should be started using the command:mqsistart CMGR_SCCS

6. Create the brokers. On each servers, run the following command once (type the command as a single line, even if it displays as two lines here):mqsicreatebroker BRKR_SCCSn -i SERVICE_USER_ID -a SERVICE_USER_PWD -q SCCS.QUEUEn.MANAGER -n BROKER_DB_NAME -u BROKER_DB_USER -p BROKER_DB_PWD

Where...Name BRKR_SCCSn Description Example

Chapter 3. Installing

79

For example, on server #2 (and similarly on the other servers), run:

7. Add the brokers to the configuration. On each server, run the following command (type the command as a single line, even if it displays as two lines here):java mqsi.AddBroker -i HOSTNAME1 -p 1414 -q SCCS.QUEUE1.MANAGER -b BRKR_SCCSn -k SCCS.QUEUEn.MANAGER

Note: The -i and -q parameters refer to the host name and queue manager holding the configuration manager (the initial server). For example, if you have three servers, you will run the following commands on server #2 (and similarly on the server #3):java mqsi.AddBroker -i server1.mydomain.com -p 1414 -q SCCS.QUEUE1.MANAGER -b BRKR_SCCS2 -k SCCS.QUEUE2.MANAGER

When the command runs, you will see a message detailing results.

If the broker addition failed, you cannot proceed until you have successfully added the broker to the topology. Look for the message stating "Adding broker to topology......." and check the status ("ok" or "failed").

If the addition of the default execution group fails, you might still be able to proceed because you will add it explicitly in a later step. Look for the message stating "Adding default execution group to topology......" and check the status (ok" or "failed").

8. Start the brokers. On each server, run the following command to start the broker:mqsistart BRKR_SCCS<n>

For example, on server #2 (and similarly on the other servers), run:

mqsistart BRKR_SCCS2

80

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

9. Create a default execution group. On each server, run the following command (type the command as a single line, even if it displays as two lines here):mqsicreateexecutiongroup -b BRKR_SCCSn -e default -i HOSTNAME1 -p 1414 -q SCCS.QUEUE1.MANAGER -w 600

Where the -i and -q parameters refer to the host name and queue manager holding the configuration manager. For example, on server two, the command would be:mqsicreateexecutiongroup -b BRKR_SCCS2 -e default -i server1.mydomain.com -p 1414 -q SCCS.QUEUE1.MANAGER -w 600

If you see a message stating that the command failed because the default execution group already exists, you can ignore it and continue to the next step.

Where the -i and -q parameters refer to the host name and queue manager holding the configuration manager (the initial server). For example, if you have three servers, you will run the following commands on server 1 (on no commands on any other servers):mqsideploy -l -i server1.mydomain.com -p 1414 -q SCCS.QUEUE1.MANAGER -w 300

11. Deploy the BAR file. On each server, run the following command (type the command as a single line, even if it displays as two lines here):mqsideploy -m -i HOSTNAME1 -p 1414 -q SCCS.QUEUE1.MANAGER -b BRKR_SCCSn -e default -a BAR_FILE_PATH -w 300

Where BAR_FILE_PATH is the path for the message flow BAR file on this server. For example, C:\Progra~1\IBM\MQSI\6.0\realtime1506.bar. Note: The -i and -q parameters refer to the host name and queue manager holding the configuration manager (the initial server). For example, if you have three servers, you will run the following on server #1:mqsideploy -m -i server1.mydomain.com -p 1414 -q SCCS.QUEUE1.MANAGER -b BRKR_SCCS1 -e default -a C:\Progra~1\IBM\MQSI\6.0\realtime1506.bar -w 300

Where INTER_BROKER_PORTn is the inter broker communication port for broker #n; for example, port1507. The inter broker port must be a free TCP/IP port on the server where the broker is running. The -i and -q parameters of the mqsi.SetInterBrokerParam command refer to the host name and queue manager holding the configuration manager. For example, if you have three servers, you will run the following commands on server #1...

13. Create the collective. On the initial server only, run the following command (type the command as a single line, even if it displays as two lines here):java mqsi.CreateCollective -p 1414 -q SCCS.QUEUE1.MANAGER -b BRKR_SCCS1 -b BRKR_SCCS2 ... -b BRKR_SCCSn

Note: The -b BRKR_SCCSn option must be repeated for every broker to be included in the collective. The '...' is not part of the command. If you have three servers, you will run the following command on server #1 (and no commands on any other server):java mqsi.CreateCollective -p 1414 -q SCCS.QUEUE1.MANAGER -b BRKR_SCCS1 -b BRKR_SCCS2 -b BRKR_SCCS3

14. Stop the configuration manager. On the initial server only, run the following command:mqsistop CONFIG_MANAGER_NAME

Where CONFIG_MANAGER_NAME is the configuration manager name. For example, CMGR_SCCS. 15. Set the broker security. On each of the servers, run the following commands:

16. Start the configuration manager. On the initial server only, run the following command:mqsistart CONFIG_MANAGER_NAME

Where CONFIG_MANAGER_NAME is the configuration manager name. For example, CMGR_SCCS. Authenticating the inter-broker connection: When the collective starts, a connection is established between the brokers in the collective (using the inter-broker port). This connection is authenticated by passing the broker ID to the ST Adv security exit of the other broker. By default, this ID is set in the broker to 'Broker'. If this ID is set to something different, the Security exit must be notified by setting an additional property in the exitSettins.ini file:brokerID=<BROKER_ID>

Where <BROKER_ID> is the new broker ID. You can check the broker ID value by opening an Event Broker Command Console and entering the following command:mqsireportproperties <BRKR_NAME> -e default -o DynamicSubscriptionEngine -n myBrokerUid

Where <BRKR_NAME> is the broker name. Example

In this case, the ID of broker BRKR_SCCS1 (StaBroker01) will be sent to the security exit on the other broker (BRKR_SCCS2) for authentication. The exitSetting.ini file on BRKR_SCCS2 should be updated with an entry reading:brokerID=StaBroker01

If you are having trouble with the collective and you suspect the problem is coming from the authentication not working, enable the DummyTrue exit instead of the rest.RestImpl. With the DummyTrue exit, authentication requests always succeed regardless of what the ID of the brokers are. On the other hand, if your collective already starts with the DummyTrue exit, the problem is coming from the inter-broker authentication.

Verifying the configuration: Once the collective is configured, you should verify it is working correctly. If the collective is set up properly, you should see the following message in the system log once all the brokers in the collective start:

If this message does not display, it is likely your collective is not set up properly. Once the collective is set up you can verify it is working correctly by connecting one client to a broker in the collective, and a second client to another broker. Messages published on one broker should be broadcast on the other. Enabling load balancing for the cluster with a round robin DNS: Enable load balancing for the IBM WebSphere MQ cluster by setting up a round robin DNS. Load balancing allows a client to point to multiple brokers within the collective rather than being limited to a single broker. Before you begin A round robin DNS distributes load by directing queries to different members of the cluster in sequence. After you set up the round robin DNS, the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced plug-ins use this DNS server to connect to the broker collective so that broker requests are load-balanced among the Broker nodes that make up the collective. The mechanism for setting up a round robin DNS is determined by the network and operating systems that comprise your deployment. Clustering Lotus Sametime Advanced and WebSphere Application Server: Create a cluster of IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced servers using an IBM WebSphere Application Server network deployment. Before you begin A WebSphere Application Server network deployment is the only configuration suitable for an enterprise-level deployment of Lotus Sametime Advanced because it is scalable and eliminates single points of failure. Each instance of Lotus Sametime Advance is installed with WebSphere Application Server, and is managed through the network deployment as a "cell". A network deployment cell consists of a Primary node, one or more Secondary nodes, and a Deployment Manager that manages the all of nodes (servers) within the cell as a single domain. Typically, a network deployment contains one node per physical computer. This is not a requirement; nodes are logical groupings of application servers, so you can have more than one node installed on a physical system. For performance reasons, most installations have only one cluster member per node, since each cluster member creates its own JVM footprint. In a network deployment, all nodes are federated into the Deployment Manager's "cell". This allows the Deployment Manager to fulfill its purpose in life: manage the deployment by administering the cell into which the nodes are installed. The Primary node is basically the same thing as a single-server installation; it contains

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

all the applications and WebSphere Application Server components that are required to run Lotus Sametime Advanced. When you install the Primary node, you create a server "template". This template is then cloned for use with all Secondary nodes across the cluster. The Secondary nodes are WebSphere Application Server placeholders that can run additional cluster members (servers created as clones of the Primary node). When you install a Secondary node for Lotus Sametime Advanced, the installation creates a node and a default server instance, as well as some node-level WebSphere Application Server attributes such as data sources, WebSphere variables, and shared library definitions. A network deployment of Lotus Sametime Advanced can contain up to 254 Secondary nodes, or as few as one. About this task Clustering with a WebSphere Application Server network deployment involves the following tasks, which should be completed in the sequence shown: Installing the Deployment Manager: Run the installation program to deploy the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced application on your computer using the "Deployment Manager" option. Before you begin The Deployment Manager administers the cluster where you deploy Lotus Sametime Advanced. The Deployment Manager servers as a central point of administration, handling the configuration of all cluster-level configurations, including (but not limited to) JDBC providers and data sources (the connections to the remote database), WebSphere Application Server variables, applications, application servers, clusters, IBM HTTP server configuration management, security configurations (LDAP, SSL, SSO), and various other components necessary to run an enterprise-level application. When you deploy a cluster, you install the Deployment Manager first, and then add other servers, called "nodes," to it. In addition to deploying WebSphere Application Server and Lotus Sametime Advanced, installing the Deployment Manager installs the WebSphere shared binaries, the deployment manager profile used by Lotus Sametime Advanced, some of the Lotus Sametime Advanced configuration, and the user directory configuration (LDAP, local file system, and remote database user repositories). About this task Follow these steps to install Lotus Sametime Advanced: 1. Log in to your computer as the system administrator (Microsoft Windows) or as root (IBM AIX, Linux, Solaris). 2. Download the appropriate packages for your operating system, and extract the files. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document posted at the following Web address: www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149.

Federating the Primary node: Add the Primary node to the cell controlled by the Deployment Manager. This task backs up the original configuration on the Primary node, and adds all the Primary node's components to the Deployment Manager's cell. This allows a central point of administration for the network deployment by using the Deployment Manager's Integrated Solutions Console. You will not be able log into the Primary node's own Integrated Solutions Console after this step but will instead be required to use the Deployment Manager. Before you begin The Deployment Manager must be installed and running. About this task When you federate, the Integrated Solutions Console of the Primary node is disabled because you will be using the Integrated Solutions Console from the Deployment Manager. The Primary node inherits all of the cell-level configuration data from the Deployment Manager. Any information you can see through the Deployment Manager's Integrated Solutions Console is now stored on the Primary node, so it is accessible from any application. Because the LDAP configuration and your credentials as the WebSphere Application Server administrative user in the Deployment Manager are defined at the cell level, this data overwrites the security settings of the Primary node: the Deployment Manager's settings now apply to the Primary node as well. If you remove the Primary node from the cell, its original security configuration is restored.

92

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

After you have federated the Primary node, you can run a real environment and configure your Lotus Sametime communities just as you would in a single-server environment. What is lacking is failover and load balancing capabilities. To add those features, you need to add a Secondary node, and create a cluster, as described in later tasks. 1. Synchronize the system clocks on the Deployment Manager and the Primary node, and make sure they are set for the same timezone. 2. On the Deployment Manager, ping the Primary node to make sure the host name is resolvable and a valid connection exists. 3. On the Primary node, ping the Deployment Manager to make sure that host name is also resolvable. 4. Still on the Primary node, open a command window and navigate to the \bin directory under the WebSphere Application Server root installation. For example, on Windows:C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\ST_Advanced_Profile\bin

5. Run the following command to federate the Primary node to the Deployment Manager: Note: Type the command all on one line. AIX, Linux, Solari./addnode.sh DM_server_host_name DM_SOAP_port -username WAS_Admin_Username_on_DM -password WAS_Admin_password_on_DM -includeapps

where: v DM_server_host_name is the resolvable host name of the Deployment Manager v DM_SOAP_port is the port that the Deployment Manager's SOAP port is listening on (typically this is 8879) v WAS_Admin_Username_on_DM is the user ID of the WebSphere Application Server administrator account on the Deployment Manager v WAS_Admin_password_on_DM is the password associated with that WebSphere Application Server administrator account System output The final line of the system output should indicate success; for example:ADMU0003I: Primary_node_name has been successfully federated.

6. To verify that the Primary node has joined the Deployment Manager's cell, move to the Deployment Manager and log into the Integrated Solutions Console using your WebSphere Application Server administrative user ID and password, and then click Servers Application servers. Make sure you can see the Primary node's information. Installing a Secondary node: Run the installation program to deploy the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced application on your computer using the "Secondary node" option. Before you begin The Secondary nodes are used to run the Lotus Sametime Advanced applications in a distributed environment, allowing you to deploy the product in a manner thatChapter 3. Installing

takes advantage of load balancing and fail-over features provided in a network deployment. For Lotus Sametime Advanced, the Secondary node installer will install a basic WebSphere Application Server environment with its components defined at the node level for running Lotus Sametime Advanced as a cluster member. The majority of the components required for running Lotus Sametime Advanced are installed on the Primary node, so when you use the Primary node as a template for the Secondary nodes in the cluster, each Secondary node inherits a copy of those components. Some components, such as the path to a resource provider driver file, need to be defined differently on each node since they may exist in different locations or have system-specific values. These components are configured during the installation of the Secondary node; this step should be completed on every Secondary node. About this task Follow these steps to install Lotus Sametime Advanced: 1. Log in to your computer as the system administrator (Microsoft Windows) or as root (IBM AIX, Linux, Solaris). 2. Download the appropriate packages for your operating system, and extract the files. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document posted at the following Web address:www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149

You will need to download packages for the following products onto this server: v WebSphere Application Server 6.1.0.13 v Lotus Sametime Advanced 3. Extract the files for WebSphere Application Server so they can be used by the Lotus Sametime Advanced installer. 4. Navigate to the folder where you stored the downloaded files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and start the installation program by running one of the following commands: v AIX, Linux, Solaris./install.sh

14. Finally, update the virtual host "default_host" alias to reflect the port on which WebSphere Application Server is listening (port 9081): a. Open the Integrated Solutions Console (the WebSphere administrative console) on the new node. b. Click Environment Virtual Hosts default_host Host Aliases. c. Set the port to 9081. d. Save your changes. Federating a Secondary node: Federate a Secondary node to a cell within an IBM WebSphere Application Server network deployment. Before you begin The Deployment Manager must be installed and running. Federating a Secondary node is a similar process to federating the Primary node: 1. Synchronize the system clocks on the Secondary Node to match the Primary Node, and make sure they are set to the same timezone. Although general clustering guidelines instruct you to set the node clocks to within a few minutes of each other, Lotus Sametime Advanced requires them to match; otherwise users may see odd results while chatting. 2. On the Deployment Manager, ping the Secondary node to make sure the host name is resolvable and a valid connection exists. 3. On the Secondary node, ping the Deployment Manager to make sure that host name is also resolvable. 4. Still on the Secondary node, open a command window and navigate to the \bin directory under the WebSphere Application Server root installation. For example, on Windows:C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\bin

5. Run the following command to federate the Secondary node to the Deployment Manager: Note: Type the command all on one line. AIX, Linux, SolariChapter 3. Installing

where: v DM_server_host_name is the resolvable host name of the Deployment Manager v DM_SOAP_port is the port that the Deployment Manager's SOAP port is listening on (typically this is 8879) v WAS_Admin_Username_on_DM is the user ID of the WebSphere Application Server administrator account on the Deployment Manager v WAS_Admin_password_on_DM is the password associated with that WebSphere Application Server administrator account System output The final line of the system output should indicate success; for example:ADMU0003I: Secondary_node_name has been successfully federated.

6. To verify that the Secondary node has joined the Deployment Manager's cell, move to the Deployment Manager and log into the Integrated Solutions Console using your WebSphere Application Server administrative user ID and password, and then click Servers Application servers. Make sure you can see the Secondary node's information. 7. For each additional Secondary node, repeat the preceding steps. 8. After you have finished federating Secondary nodes, move to the Deployment Manager and restart it by typing the following commands: (Wait for the first command to finish before starting the Deployment Manager:stopManager

Wait for the first command to finish before running the second:startManager

Configuring the cluster: Configuring the network deployment as a cluster converts the applications that are (by default) running on "server1" of the Primary node to run at the cluster level, taking advantage of the enterprise-level features of IBM WebSphere, such as load balancing and failover. Before you begin To configure the cluster, you will use the Primary node's server1 (WebSphere Application Server) instance as a template to define the Secondary nodes as cluster members. Every Secondary node added to the cluster will receive a copy of all of the components that are currently configured on the Primary node's application server and the application modules will be configured to run at the cluster level. This task will leave the Primary node's server intact, but it is not going to be a useful server anymore after this step. If you attempt to server1 after this process is complete, it will fail to start instead, you should only start the Secondary nodes that have been added to the cluster.

Upgrading Lotus Sametime Advanced clients

After you upgrade IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced, upgrade the clients so they can access new features.

Before you begin

Users can access Lotus Sametime Advanced features using either the Lotus Sametime Connect client, or the Lotus Notes client. Existing users can access new features through an update site that you set up on a server. New users can install the Lotus Sametime Advanced client along with the Lotus Sametime Connect client or Lotus Notes client.

About this task

The tasks below provide instructions for distributing the newest Lotus Sametime Advanced client features to all of these users:

Providing an update site for clients

Provide an update site on the HTTP server that allows Lotus Sametime Connect clients to install plugins and features for Lotus Sametime Advanced.

Before you begin

Note: If you used the archive installation program on Linux, the update site was set up for you during installation and you can skip this task. Before beginning this task, make sure you have installed and configured the following applications and their prerequisite components: v Lotus Sametime Standard v Lotus Sametime Advanced v IBM HTTP Server 1. Make sure you have downloaded the appropriate files to the computer where you will install the Lotus Sametime Advanced Client Update site. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document at www.ibm.com/support/ docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149.Chapter 4. Upgrading

133

The Sametime Advanced Client plugins are packaged with the Sametime Advanced Server, in the AdvUpdateSite directory. 2. Copy sametime.advanced.update.site.zip to a local folder on the computer that will host the update site. 3. Navigate to the http document root folder for IBM HTTP Server. Typically, the folder is located in the Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\htdocs\ locale folder; for example, on Windows:C:\Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\htdocs\en_US

If you do not know the folder's name or location, check the httpd.conf file located inC:\Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\conf. 4. Create a subfolder called updatesite. 5. In this new folder, unzip sametime.advanced.update.site.zip. Now that the update site is posted, you should test it with the following steps. 6. Check the folder structure on your HTTP server: a. The update folders should be located under the http document root folder. For example:C:\Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\htdocs\en_US\updatesite\

b. The updatesite folder should contain the following: v site.xml v plugins v features 7. Start the HTTP server and use a Web browser to connect to the update URL: http://server_host/updatesite/site.xml. For example:http://stadv.acme.com/updatesite/site.xml

Make sure the contents of the site.xml file are displayed.

What to do nextAfter you have verified the update site, you must edit the plugin_customization.ini file with the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced default settings for Lotus Sametime Connect client preferences. See the next topic.

Setting up Sametime default client preferences for Sametime Advanced

The plugin_customization.ini configuration file lets you customize the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced default settings for Lotus Sametime Connect client preferences. You can set the Lotus Sametime Advanced server names and port numbers for all your users in this file. You can also use this to deploy clients to have consistent behavior so that all users have a similar experience with Lotus Sametime Advanced. This method does not force the settings to stick; it simply sets the default setting.

About this task

You edit the plugin_customization.ini file in com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.advanced.preferences.feature with the default preferences that you want. The feature should then be posted on a Lotus Sametime Advanced update site for the Lotus Sametime clients to download. When a new client logs in, it finds the new customization feature and downloads it, and merges the contents of the plugin_customization.ini with the existing one. The client

134

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

restarts and reads the new preferences. The client never downloads the feature again since it has already been installed. Every time the client starts, the plugin_customization.ini preferences are read. The following steps explain how to update the plugin_customization.ini file. 1. On your HTTP server, unzip the feature jar file. For example:C:\Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\htdocs\en_US\updatesite\features\ com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.advanced.preferences.feature_8.0.0.time_stamp.jar

2. Modify or replace the plugin_customization.ini file so that it contains the Sametime Advanced server host names, port numbers, and any other plugin preferences that you want. A preference has to be entered into the file with the full path: plugin_id/propertyName = propertyValue . Note: The code below has been formatted for readability. For descriptions of the following preferences, click the topic, "Sametime Advanced client preferences" after the last step in this procedure. For example:#Set the Advanced broadcast server host name com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs/sametimeAdvancedServerName= stv_server.mycompany.com #Set the Advanced broadcast server port com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs/sametimeAdvancedServerPort=80 #Set the Advanced broadcast server community host name com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs/sametimeCommunityServer= server.mycompany.com #Set the Event Broker server host name com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs/broadcastToolsServerName= eb_server.mycompany.com #Set the Event Broker server port here com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs/broadcastToolsServerPort=1506 #Use SSL while connecting to the server? Set to true to use HTTPS; #False to use plain HTTP com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs/useHTTPS=false

3. Repackage the feature. Make sure the version in the feature.xml and site.xml reference the correct version of the file. If this is not the first time provisioning this feature, increment the feature version of the jar file. For example:<site> <feature url="features/com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.advanced.preferences. feature_8.0.0.time_stamp.jar" id="com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.advanced.preferences.feature" version="8.0.0"> <category name="Other" /> </feature> <category-def name="Other" label="Other" /> </site>

4. On the IBM HTTP server, navigate to your update site folder, for example:C:\Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\htdocs\en_US\updatesite

5. Copy your jar file to the update site. Lotus Sametime Advanced client preferences: The following table contains the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced preferences for the Lotus Sametime Connect client that are set by administrators in the plugin_customization.ini file.

Setting Sametime policies for your update site

When you set up your IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced update site, you need to specify policies on the Sametime Standard server for how users will get the Lotus Sametime Advanced plugins as well as updates.

Before you begin

Before you begin, you should have installed the HTTP server and set up an update site on the server.

About this task

There are two methods for pushing updates to users: v Automatic Updates: Administrators can provision new or updated Lotus Sametime Advanced plugins to their clients in a "push" mode so that all clients use the same set of features. The push method enables the client to receive updates automatically whenever he or she logs in to Lotus Sametime Connect. v Optional Updates: Administrators can also provide new Lotus Sametime Advanced features to their clients as an option. With the optional method, the user is notified that updates are available when logging in to the Lotus Sametime Connect client. The user selects which updates to install, if any. 1. Log in to Lotus Sametime at http://<sametime_host_name>/stcenter.nsf. 2. Under Administration tools, click Administer the server. 3. Click Policies. 4. Click a policy that is available to Lotus Sametime Advanced users. You can also create a policy exclusively for Lotus Sametime Advanced users. You might want to do this if Advanced users are a subset of Sametime users or if you plan an maintaining separate update sites on the Sametime and Sametime advanced servers. 5. If you want to set up automatic updates, then add the update site URL to the Sametime update site URL field. If you already have an existing update site in the URL, for example for Sametime Standard users, then you can add an additional URL for Sametime Advanced separated by a semicolon or a comma.http://<sametime_host_name>/updatesite, http://<stadvanced_host_name>/updatesiteChapter 4. Upgrading

6. If you want to set up an optional updates, then add the update site URL in the Sametime optional add-on site URLs field.http://<stadvanced_host_name>/updatesite

7. Click OK.

Installing client software

Before you begin

There are two types of client you may want to install: v Lotus Sametime Connect client This client runs as an application on the end-user's computer to access Lotus Sametime Standard features. After you set up the Lotus Sametime Advanced update site, users can install new features available with Lotus Sametime Advanced and use them within the Lotus Sametime Connect client. If users have not installed the Connect client yet, you can modify the installation kit and insert the Lotus Sametime Advanced client right into it, so that users can install both clients at once. v Lotus Sametime Advanced embedded client for Lotus Notes users This client can be installed as an addition to the Lotus Notes client, allowing users to access Lotus Sametime Advanced features from within the Lotus Notes user interface.

About this task

Select the topic that reflects the type of client you wish to deploy to your users:

Before you begin

Before distributing the Lotus Sametime Connect client to users, you can add the Lotus Sametime Advanced client into the installation kit to ensure users have access to features of both products. Note: Adding the Lotus Sametime Advanced client into the Connect client's installation kit uses difference procedures for Lotus Sametime 8 and Lotus Sametime 8.0.1, so be sure to follow the correct set of instructions for this task: Adding the Lotus Sametime Advanced client to the Lotus Sametime Connect client installation kit: If users have not installed the IBM Lotus Sametime Connect client yet, you can modify the installation kit and insert the Lotus Sametime Advanced client right into it, so that users can install both clients at once.

If Lotus Notes is closed, the splash screen is followed by a progress meter, which disappears once the update is complete. The next time the user launches Lotus Notes, the Lotus Sametime Advanced embedded client will be available for use. e. Repeat for each Lotus Notes user.

About this task

Supporting connections on port 80

Configure either a proxy server or an HTTP server to support connections between clients and the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced server over port 80.

About this task

For performance reasons, the IBM HTTP server has a limit of around 2000 concurrent connections; this may be insufficient when you are supporting persistent chats with Lotus Sametime Advanced. For deployments involving more than 2000 simultaneous users, it is recommended that you use a WebSphere Application Server Proxy server instead of an HTTP server.

Installing a WebSphere Application Server proxy server

An IBM WebSphere Application Server proxy server operates with WebSphere Application Server to provide Web access for concurrent users in a large deployment. This is recommended over using IBM HTTP server because IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced persistent chats will use up many of the 2000 connections supported by HTTP server and be insufficient for your user base.

Before you begin

For performance reasons, the IBM HTTP server has a limit of around 2000 concurrent connections; this may be insufficient when you are supporting persistent chats with Lotus Sametime Advanced. For deployments involving more than 2000 simultaneous users, it is recommended that you use a WebSphere Application Server proxy server instead of an HTTP server. It is recommended that you deploy Lotus Sametime Advanced in a cluster, even if it only contains a single node, as it will be easier to later add additional nodes. If you did not set up a single-node cluster, you can still configure a proxy server provided a deployment manager is managing the node with a single server; you will simply configure the proxy server to direct traffic to that server. Note that the Copyright IBM Corp. 2007, 2010

proxy server is similar to other nodes in a cluster in that it is difficult to install one node inside the DMZ while other nodes are not. Because of this, the proxy will need to be in the same zone as the cluster's other nodes. Verify that the following requirements are satisfied: v The Lotus Sametime Advanced WebSphere cluster is fully configured and operational v The WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment software is installed on the node that will run the proxy server v v v v That target note is in the same zone as the cluster's other nodes The node agent is running on that target node Lotus Sametime Advanced is running on that target node The IBM HTTP server is not running on that target node

About this task

Follow these steps to configure the WebSphere Application Server proxy server: 1. On the target node, log in to the Integrated Solutions Console as a WebSphere Application Server administrator. 2. Click Proxy Servers New, and select the node from the list. 3. Type a name for the new proxy server and click Next. 4. On the "Support Protocols" page, leave HTTP and SIP selected, leave Generate unique ports selected; click Next. 5. On the "Template" page, leave http_sip_proxy_server selected; click Next. 6. Verify that the proxy server is functioning by using a browser to access the Sametime Advanced application with the URL: http://proxy_server_name/ stadvanced. 7. To install an update site, either deploy an HTTP server on a different node, or install a WebSphere Application Server update site application on the cluster.

Connecting Lotus Sametime Advanced to Lotus Sametime Standard

Establish a connection between the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced and Lotus Sametime servers.

Before you begin

After you have installed your Lotus Sametime Advanced and Lotus Sametime servers, you must establish a connection between them. This connection enables the Single Sign-On (SSO) and Awareness features. "Awareness" is a feature provided with Lotus Sametime that enables it to track the presence of users who logged in. Before you can enable the awareness feature, you must configure single sign-on between the IBM WebSphere component of the Lotus Sametime Advanced server and the IBM Lotus Domino component of the Lotus Sametime server.

Enabling Single Sign-on

Before you begin

"Single sign-on" (SSO) is a method of access control that allows a user to authenticate with one server and, by means of a shared key, access related servers without having to authenticate again. Lotus Sametime Advanced uses the single sign-on feature to support awareness; you must enable single sign-on before you can enable awareness. Note: The Lotus Sametime Advanced and Lotus Sametime Standard servers must reside in the same domain and share a common LDAP directory to support single sign-on and awareness. When you configure single sign-on, you create a key in the IBM WebSphere Application Server component on the Lotus Sametime Advanced server, and then export the key. Next, you import that key to the IBM Lotus Domino component of the Lotus Sametime Standard server to complete the single sign-on enablement. For more information on enabling single sign-on, visit the Websphere Portal information center at the following Web address and search on "Configuring IBM Lotus Domino Enterprise Server mail and application servers and WebSphere Portal to work together":http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wpdoc/v510/index.jsp

Enable single sign-on by completing the following tasks: Configuring SSO for the nodes in a cluster: If you install multiple IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced servers and cluster them with a network deployment, you should enable single sign-on (SSO) on each nodeChapter 5. Configuring

Enabling AwarenessEnable the awareness feature in IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced so that Lotus Sametime users can be detected when they are online.

Before you begin

After you have installed your Lotus Sametime Advanced and Lotus SametimeStandard servers, you must establish a connection between them.

About this task

You establish this connection by filling in "Server Integration" fields on the Lotus Sametime Advanced server. 1. Open the Lotus Sametime Advanced server's Administration tab by pointing a browser at the following Web address:http://hostname_or_IPaddress:9080/stadvanced

For example:http://stadv.acme.com:9080/stadvanced

Note: The Web address will resemble the one shown above, but will depend upon your own deployment. 2. Log in to Lotus Sametime Advanced using the administrator account that you created during installation (for example, "stadvadmin"). 3. Click the Administration tab. 4. On the left, click Administration Settings. 5. Now click the Server Integration tab. 6. Enter the Lotus Sametime Standard server's Host name and HTTP port in the designated fields. The HTTP port is typically port 80; however, if you have configured the server to only use SSL, this value will be different (generally port 443). If you do use SSL here, be sure to complete Step 9 below to enable SSL on the port used for supporting the awareness feature in Lotus Sametime Advanced. 7. Click Save. 8. Activate your new settings by logging out and then restarting the browser before you log in again. 9. Determine whether you need to run the updateSTSettings script to modify database settings. You will need to run this script if either (or both) of the following conditions is true for your Lotus Sametime Standard server: v SSL is enabled on the classic server's HTTP port (the port you specified in Step 6) v Tunneling is enabled on the classic server If neither condition is true, you have finished enabling awareness; skip the rest of the steps in this procedure. Next, you should set up a Lotus Sametime Connect client and log in with it to verify that awareness is working.

172

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

If one (or both) of the conditions is true, proceed to the next step and update database settings for Lotus Sametime Advanced. 10. Download the appropriate version of the updateSTSettings script for your operating system to a server that has access to the Lotus Sametime Advanced database (the database called "STADV" in this documentation, but if you ran the archive installer on Linux it defaulted to "CHATS"). This script is stored in the \SupportingFiles directory within the Lotus Sametime Advanced software download. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document posted at the following Web address: www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149. 11. On the machine that has the DB2 client installed or on a DB2 server, open a DB2 Command prompt and connect to the database:db2 connect to database user db2admin_user using password

where: v database is the name of your Lotus Sametime Advanced database (STADV in this documentation, but if you ran the archive installer on Linux it defaulted to "CHATS"). v db2admin_user is the name of a user with DB2 Administrator privileges. v password is the password for the DB2 Administrator account. v stlinks_port is the port being used for awareness on the Lotus Sametime Standard server (normally "8082"). If your classic server has tunneling enabled, set this port to "80" to support that feature. v web_ssl_enable indicates whether Web-based connections to Lotus Sametime Advanced should use SSL ("true" or "false"). If your classic server has SSL enabled, set this value to "true" when you run the script. v applet_ssl_enable indicates whether the Community connection from Lotus Sametime Standard to Lotus Sametime Advanced over port 8082 should use SSL ("true" or "false"). If you set this value to "true" when you run the script, you will need to make additional changes to the classic Lotus Sametime Standard server to support the new setting. For example, enable SSL on Windows by setting the web_ssl_enable to "true":updateSTSettings.bat STADV db2admin passw0rd 8082 true false

Enable tunneling on Windows by setting the stlinks_port to "80":

updateSTSettings.bat STADV db2admin passw0rd 80 false false

If you want to enable both features, you can set both parameters at the same time (you do not have to run the script twice) on Windows:updateSTSettings.bat STADV db2admin passw0rd 80 true false

Enabling SSO and Awareness for a native Lotus Domino Directory

If your deployment uses a native IBM Lotus Domino Directory for addressing, you must complete an additional task to enabling Awareness and Single Sign-On between an IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced server and a Lotus Sametime Standard server.

Before you begin

When using a Lotus Sametime Advanced Server with a Lotus Sametime Standard server that is configured to use a native Lotus Domino Directory, enabling the Awareness and Single Sign-On features requires the following tasks: 1. Complete the steps to "Enable Single Sign-On" and "Enable Awareness" as described in the preceding topics in this section. 2. Follow the instructions in the IBM Tech Note titled "How to configure awareness when using a native Domino Directory with Sametime Advanced" to apply the Lotus Sametime Standard server patch. This Tech Note is available at the following Web address:http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg21305179

3. If you already configured your Lotus Domino directory on the Lotus Sametime Advanced server without specifying a base distinguished name suffix (such as c=US or c=UK) for searching, you must define a new Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) login module that is used by system resources for authentication, principal mapping, and credential mapping by completing the steps below.

About this task

Do the following on the server where you installed Lotus Sametime Advanced: 1. Launch the Integrated Solutions Console by opening a Web browser and navigating to: http://stadv.acme.com:9060/ibm/console. 2. Click Security > Secure administration, applications, and infrastructure. 3. Under Java Authentication and Authorization Service, click System logins. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Click RMI_INBOUND Under Additional Properties, click JAAS Login Modules. Click New. Type com.ibm.stadv.domino.login.STAdvDominoLogin in the Class Name field. Click Apply, and then click Save. Click Set Order to change the processing order of the login modules.

10. Select com.ibm.stadv.domino.login.STAdvDominoLogin and move it up to number 1. 11. Click Apply, and then click Save. 12. Repeat steps 4 through 11 for the WEB_INBOUND System login.

Connecting Lotus Sametime Connect clients to the Lotus Sametime Advanced serverTo ensure that IBM Lotus Sametime Connect clients can access the Lotus Sametime Advanced server, you must configure clients with the correct server and port information. You do this by "pushing" the information from the server's update site.

174

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

Before you begin About this task

The update site includes plugins for the Lotus Sametime Advanced application. Any Lotus Sametime user can find out about the update site and install the plugins. Only users with a license to use Lotus Sametime Advanced can actually get the plugins to work. After users have downloaded and installed Lotus Sametime Advanced, they might need to access an update site to install: v A new feature that you have purchased or developed yourself using the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced Software Development Kit. v An update that IBM has provided for an existing feature.

Providing an update site for clients

Provide an update site on the HTTP server that allows Lotus Sametime Connect clients to install plugins and features for Lotus Sametime Advanced.

Before you begin

Note: If you used the archive installation program on Linux, the update site was set up for you during installation and you can skip this task. Before beginning this task, make sure you have installed and configured the following applications and their prerequisite components: v Lotus Sametime Standard v Lotus Sametime Advanced v IBM HTTP Server 1. Make sure you have downloaded the appropriate files to the computer where you will install the Lotus Sametime Advanced Client Update site. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document at www.ibm.com/support/ docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149. The Sametime Advanced Client plugins are packaged with the Sametime Advanced Server, in the AdvUpdateSite directory. 2. Copy sametime.advanced.update.site.zip to a local folder on the computer that will host the update site. 3. Navigate to the http document root folder for IBM HTTP Server. Typically, the folder is located in the Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\htdocs\ locale folder; for example, on Windows:C:\Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\htdocs\en_US

If you do not know the folder's name or location, check the httpd.conf file located inC:\Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\conf. 4. Create a subfolder called updatesite. 5. In this new folder, unzip sametime.advanced.update.site.zip. Now that the update site is posted, you should test it with the following steps. 6. Check the folder structure on your HTTP server: a. The update folders should be located under the http document root folder. For example:C:\Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\htdocs\en_US\updatesite\

b. The updatesite folder should contain the following: v site.xml

Chapter 5. Configuring

175

v plugins v features 7. Start the HTTP server and use a Web browser to connect to the update URL: http://server_host/updatesite/site.xml. For example:http://stadv.acme.com/updatesite/site.xml

Make sure the contents of the site.xml file are displayed.

What to do nextAfter you have verified the update site, you must edit the plugin_customization.ini file with the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced default settings for Lotus Sametime Connect client preferences. See the next topic. Setting up Sametime default client preferences for Sametime Advanced: The plugin_customization.ini configuration file lets you customize the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced default settings for Lotus Sametime Connect client preferences. You can set the Lotus Sametime Advanced server names and port numbers for all your users in this file. You can also use this to deploy clients to have consistent behavior so that all users have a similar experience with Lotus Sametime Advanced. This method does not force the settings to stick; it simply sets the default setting. About this task You edit the plugin_customization.ini file in com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.advanced.preferences.feature with the default preferences that you want. The feature should then be posted on a Lotus Sametime Advanced update site for the Lotus Sametime clients to download. When a new client logs in, it finds the new customization feature and downloads it, and merges the contents of the plugin_customization.ini with the existing one. The client restarts and reads the new preferences. The client never downloads the feature again since it has already been installed. Every time the client starts, the plugin_customization.ini preferences are read. The following steps explain how to update the plugin_customization.ini file. 1. On your HTTP server, unzip the feature jar file. For example:C:\Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\htdocs\en_US\updatesite\features\ com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.advanced.preferences.feature_8.0.0.time_stamp.jar

2. Modify or replace the plugin_customization.ini file so that it contains the Sametime Advanced server host names, port numbers, and any other plugin preferences that you want. A preference has to be entered into the file with the full path: plugin_id/propertyName = propertyValue . Note: The code below has been formatted for readability. For descriptions of the following preferences, click the topic, "Sametime Advanced client preferences" after the last step in this procedure. For example:#Set the Advanced broadcast server host name com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs/sametimeAdvancedServerName= stv_server.mycompany.com #Set the Advanced broadcast server port

176

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs/sametimeAdvancedServerPort=80 #Set the Advanced broadcast server community host name com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs/sametimeCommunityServer= server.mycompany.com #Set the Event Broker server host name com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs/broadcastToolsServerName= eb_server.mycompany.com #Set the Event Broker server port here com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs/broadcastToolsServerPort=1506 #Use SSL while connecting to the server? Set to true to use HTTPS; #False to use plain HTTP com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs/useHTTPS=false

3. Repackage the feature. Make sure the version in the feature.xml and site.xml reference the correct version of the file. If this is not the first time provisioning this feature, increment the feature version of the jar file. For example:<site> <feature url="features/com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.advanced.preferences. feature_8.0.0.time_stamp.jar" id="com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.advanced.preferences.feature" version="8.0.0"> <category name="Other" /> </feature> <category-def name="Other" label="Other" /> </site>

4. On the IBM HTTP server, navigate to your update site folder, for example:C:\Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\htdocs\en_US\updatesite

5. Copy your jar file to the update site. Lotus Sametime Advanced client preferences: The following table contains the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced preferences for the Lotus Sametime Connect client that are set by administrators in the plugin_customization.ini file.Entry Description

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

When you set up your IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced update site, you need to specify policies on the Sametime Standard server for how users will get the Lotus Sametime Advanced plugins as well as updates. Before you begin Before you begin, you should have installed the HTTP server and set up an update site on the server. About this task There are two methods for pushing updates to users: v Automatic Updates: Administrators can provision new or updated Lotus Sametime Advanced plugins to their clients in a "push" mode so that all clients use the same set of features. The push method enables the client to receive updates automatically whenever he or she logs in to Lotus Sametime Connect. v Optional Updates: Administrators can also provide new Lotus Sametime Advanced features to their clients as an option. With the optional method, the user is notified that updates are available when logging in to the Lotus Sametime Connect client. The user selects which updates to install, if any. 1. Log in to Lotus Sametime at http://<sametime_host_name>/stcenter.nsf. 2. Under Administration tools, click Administer the server. 3. Click Policies. 4. Click a policy that is available to Lotus Sametime Advanced users. You can also create a policy exclusively for Lotus Sametime Advanced users. You might want to do this if Advanced users are a subset of Sametime users or if you plan an maintaining separate update sites on the Sametime and Sametime advanced servers. 5. If you want to set up automatic updates, then add the update site URL to the Sametime update site URL field. If you already have an existing update site in the URL, for example for Sametime Standard users, then you can add an additional URL for Sametime Advanced separated by a semicolon or a comma.http://<sametime_host_name>/updatesite, http://<stadvanced_host_name>/updatesite

6. If you want to set up an optional updates, then add the update site URL in the Sametime optional add-on site URLs field.http://<stadvanced_host_name>/updatesite

7. Click OK.

Results During installation of the Lotus Notes client, the user will be offered the choice of additionally installing the Lotus Sametime Advanced embedded client. Provisioning the Lotus Sametime Advanced client for existing Lotus Notes clients: Distribute the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced embedded client by provisioning it for existing IBM Lotus Notes users. This method assumes that the user has already installed the Lotus Notes client, and uses IBM Lotus Expeditor to enable provisioning. About this task Provision the Lotus Sametime Advanced embedded client for the Lotus Notes installation kit by completing the following steps: 1. Download the appropriate provision-advanced provisioning script for your operating system (.sh or .bat) to the computer where you will set up provisioning. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document posted at the following Web address: www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149. 2. Create an installation manifest file using the template below. The manifest defines what will be installed to the Lotus Notes clients; add in the reference to Lotus Sametime Advanced by customizing the code below and saving the file in XML format; for example, using by naming the file stadvanced_manifest.xml. Note: The code below has been formatted for readability; each statement is enclosed in < and > markers. Windows Use the following template:

In the manifest template, modify the following attributes for your deployment: a. For every feature element, modify the url attribute with the path to the source of the Lotus Sametime Advanced update site.<feature url="jar:file:/path-to-update-site.zip!/" id="com.ibm.swt.xulrunner.feature" version="3.2.0.v200803071645" match="perfect" shared="true" action="install"/>

About this task

SSL provides encrypted communications for Lotus Sametime Advanced communities. The foundation technology for SSL is public key cryptography, which guarantees that when an entity encrypts data using its private key, only entities with the corresponding public key can decrypt that data. Because Lotus Sametime Advanced is a collection of enterprise services there is no central location for SSL configuration. Each of these service components must be addressed for SSL configuration. The following topics contain instructions for implementing SSL authentication.

Chapter 5. Configuring

Configuring SSL for the Sametime Advanced Server

These procedures describe how to set up Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) on a IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced server.

Before you begin

Before you begin, install and connect Lotus Sametime Advanced to an LDAP directory.

About this task

To have a secure network connection, create a key for secure network communications and receive a certificate from a certificate authority (CA) that is designated as a trusted CA on your server. WebSphere Application Server uses the certificates that reside in keystores to establish trust for a SSL connection. WebSphere Application Server creates the key.p12 default keystore file and the trust.p12 default truststore file during profile creation. A default, self-signed certificate is also created in the key.p12 file at this time. Note: If you use a certificate other than the default self-signed certificate provided, ensure that the SSL certificate contains the Basic Constraints extension. Do not use a non-SSLv3-compliant self-signed CA. WebSphere Application Server 6.1 uses the IBM JDK 1.5.0 JSSE2 which checks for the presence of the Basic Constraints extension. If the extension is not set, WebSphere Application Server assumes that the CA is not a valid CA but a user certificate, which in returns doesn't allow to validate a server certificate as valid, because the issuing CA is not found. The following procedures describe how to request a Certificate Authority-signed certificate, receive the request, then extract the certificate to the keystore. For complete details for setting up SSL in WebSphere Application Server, see the WebSphere Application Server information center.

Purchasing a certificate from a Certificate Authority

About this task

The server certificate installed on the Sametime Advanced must conform to RFC 3280 certificate standards. When requesting a certificate, check with the vendor to make sure that the certificate supports both TLS Web Server Authentication and TLS Web Client Authentication. Some certificate authorities provide certificates that support server authentication only or client authentication only. Certificates must include both server and client authentication EKU flags. The certificates meet these standards. It is your responsibility to make sure that the certificate supports both. 1. Review the list of Certificate Authorities. 2. Purchase a certificate that supports both client and server authentication.

Defining the SSL configuration

Complete these steps to create a new SSL configuration.

194

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

About this task

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) configurations contain the attributes that you need to control the behavior of client and server SSL endpoints. You create a single SSL configuration to be used on the inbound and outbound trees in the configuration topology. 1. Using the Integrated Solutions Console, click Security SSL certificate and key management Manage endpoint security configurations. 2. Select a node link on the Inbound tree because you are defining an SSL configuration for one IBM Lotus Sametime node. The scope must be associated with an SSL configuration because it represents the default SSL configuration for the inbound or outbound connection. 3. Click SSL configurations under Related Items. 4. Click New to display the SSL configuration panel. 5. Type a unique configuration name and click Apply. 6. From the Trust store name drop-down list, select NodeDefaultTrustStore. A truststore name refers to a specific truststore that holds signer certificates that validate the trust of certificates sent by remote connections during an SSL handshake. 7. Select a Keystore name from the Keystore name drop-down list. Select NodeDefaultKeyStore. A keystore contains the personal certificates that represent a signer identity and the private key that WebSphere Application Server uses to encrypt and sign data. 8. Click OK, and then click Save to save the new SSL configuration.

Requesting a certificate signed by a Certificate Authority

To ensure Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) communication, servers require a personal certificate that is signed by a certificate authority (CA). You must first create a personal certificate request to obtain a certificate that is signed by a CA.

Before you begin

The keystore that contains a personal certificate request must already exist. In WebSphere Application Server, the keystore file key.p12 exists.

About this task

Complete the following tasks in the IBM WebSphere Integrated Solutions Console. 1. Click Security SSL certificate and key management Related items Key stores and certificates NodeDefaultKeyStore. 2. Under "Additional Properties," click Personal certificate requests. 3. Click New. 4. In the File for certificate request field, type the full path where the certificate request is to be stored, plus a file name. For example: c:\servercertreq.arm (for a Windows machine). 5. Type an alias name in the Key label field. The alias is the name you use to identify the certificate request in the keystore. 6. Type a common name (CN) value. The CN must be the publicly resolvable, fully qualified, DNS host name of your IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced server, and must match the domain name of your community. For example, if your Sametime Advanced

Chapter 5. Configuring

195

7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13.

community is us.acme.com, then the domain for the CN of the SSL certificate that you create for your community must be us.acme.com. Type an organization name in the Organization field. This value is the "organization" value in the certificate's distinguished name. In the Organization unit field, type the "organization unit" portion of the distinguished name. In the Locality field, type the "locality" portion of the distinguished name. In the State or Province field, type the "state" portion of the distinguished name. In the Zip Code field, type the "zip code" portion of the distinguished name. In the Country or region drop down list, select the two-letter "country code" portion of the distinguished name. Click Apply and Save. The certificate request is created in the specified file location in the keystore. The request functions as a temporary placeholder for the signed certificate until you manually receive the certificate in the keystore.

Note: Key store tools (such as iKeyman and keyTool) cannot receive signed certificates that are generated by certificate requests from WebSphere Application Server. Similarly, WebSphere Application Server cannot accept certificates that are generated by certificate requests from other keystore utilities. 14. Send the certification request arm file to a Certificate Authority for signing. 15. Make a backup copy of your keystore file. Make this backup before receiving the CA-signed certificate into the keystore. The default password for the keystore is WebAS. The Integrated Solutions Console has the path information for the keystore's location. Make a backup copy of your keystore file. Make this backup before receiving the CA-signed certificate into the keystore. The default password for the keystore is WebAS. The Integrated Solutions Console has the path information for the keystore's location. The path to the NodeDefaultKeyStore is listed in the Integrated Solutions Console as:sametime_adv_profile\config\cells\cell_name\nodes\node_name\key.p12

What to do nextNow you can receive the CA-signed certificate into the keystore to complete the process of generating a signed certificate for your server.

Importing intermediate CA certificates into the keystore

IBM WebSphere Application Server creates a certificate chain when the signed certificate is received. The chain is constructed from the signer certificates that are in the keystore at the time the certificate is received. Therefore, it is important to import all intermediate certificates as signer certificates into the keystore before receiving the Certificate Authority-signed certificate. When you purchase a server certificate for IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced, the certificate is issued by a Certificate Authority (CA). The CA can either be a root CA or an intermediary CA.

About this task

If your server certificate is issued by an intermediary CA, then complete the steps that follow, otherwise skip these steps.

196

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

1. Before you import an intermediate CA, first determine if your server's certificate was issued by an intermediary CA: a. Save the signed certificate to a text file with a .cer extension. For example: signed-certificate.cer. Include the Begin Certificate and End Certificate lines when you save the file. For example:-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----ZZZZ3zCCAkigAwIBAgIDB5iRMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBQUAME4xCzAJBgNVBAYTAlVT MRAwDgZZZZQKEwdFcXVpZmF4MS0wKwYDVQQLEyRFcXVpZmF4IFNlY3VyZSBDZXJ0 aWZpY2F0ZSBBdXRZZZZpdHkwHhcNMDcwNjE4MTkwNDI3WhcNMDgwNjE4MTkwNDI3 WjBqMQswCQYDVQQGEwJVUZZZZwGA1UECBMFVGV4YXMxDzANBgNVBAcTBkF1fc3Rp bjEMMAoGA1UEChMDSUJNMRAwDgYDVQQLEwdzdXBwb3J0MRowGAYDVQQDExFydGNn YXRlLmxvdHVzLmNvbTCBnzANBZZZZiG9w0BAQEFAAOBjQAwgYkCgYEAlb7fl36ti obgdUzUYoFuJhRVZqItvBskeVFSOqDuQ4TwOAvaPTySx3z7ddFHSHwoFVOVIkU2g OPiRcPY8oYlZ5R7Bq1fI/t5MFUTJhYw7k6z95jfIufzai2Bn3e+jzm7ivJ5dckEZ Gm3ajjYQgwjCJBfOh7P9fE13dWJSZZZZzWcCAwEAAaOBrjCBqzAOBgNVHQ8BAf8E BAMCBPAwHQYDVR0OBBYEFMHrh2oiTGbcBH759lnRZZZZn+NSMDoGA1UdHwQzMDEw L6AtoCuGKWh0dHA6Ly9jcmwuZ2VvdHJ1c3QuY29tL2NybHMvc2VjdXJlY2EuY3Js MB8GA1UdIwQYMBaAFEjmaPkr0rKV10fYIyAQTzOYkJ/ZZZZGA1UdJQQWMBQGCCsG AQUFBwMBBggrBgEFBQcDAjANBZZZZkiG9w0BAQUFAAOBgQBKq8lUVj/DOPuNL/Nn IGlrr1ot8VoZS7wZZZZlgeQLOmnZjIdRkbaoH04N3W3qZsQVs2/h4JZJj3mKVjjX FeRVHFFyGZZZZ4hHWH+Zqf/PJwjhVPKEwsiKFaAGJS5VzP3btMG8tGan02zZUE4L wPZZZZpMmvPI3U12W+76bqyvVg== -----END CERTIFICATE-----

b. Double-click on the new file that you created and a Certificate dialog box opens. c. Click on the Certification Path tab. d. Look at the tree-like structure representing the full certificate chain. The top of the chain is referred to as the root Certificate Authority (CA). The bottom of the chain represents your server's certificate. If your server is not listed one-level below the root CA, then your certificate was issued by an intermediary CA. However, if your server is listed one-level below the root CA, then the certificate was issued by the root CA. e. If the server certificate is not issued by an intermediary CA, stop here. 2. Once you determine that the certificate is an intermediate certificate, you must export the certificate from the chain into its own certificate file: a. Double-click the server's certificate (i.e. server.cer) file and a Certificate dialog box opens. b. Click Certification Path tab. c. Highlight an entry of the certificate chain. d. Click View Certificate. e. In the Certificate dialog window, click the Details tab. f. Click Copy to File... g. In the Certificate Export Wizard that appears, click Next. h. Select Base-64 encoded X.509 (.CER), and click Next. i. Type in a unique name for the certificate you are exporting and click Next. For example, "VS-intermediary-CA" for VeriSigns intermediary certificate authority. j. Click Finish. k. Click OK in the dialog box that displays the following message: The export was successful. l. Repeat the preceding sub steps for each intermediate certificate in the chain. Note that there is no need to repeat these steps for the bottom entry of the

chain because the servers certificate already exists. When you are done, you will have a certificate file (.cer) for each entry of the chain. In our example, there are three certificate files:Certificate type Root Intermediary Server Name VeriSign Class 3 Public Primary CA VeriSign Class 3 Secure Server CA sametime_advanced_server Certificate file name VS-root-CA.cer VS-intermediary-CA.cer sametime_advanced_servercer

3. Finally, import the intermediary CA certificate into the keystore by completing the following steps: a. Using the Integrated Solutions Console, click Security SSL Certificate and key management. b. Click Key stores and certificates. c. Click NodeDefaultKeyStore. d. Click Signer certificates. e. Click Add. f. In the Alias field, type a short descriptive name for the certificate. For example, "Verisign Intermediary CA." g. In the File name field, type the path to the certificate file of the intermediary CA. For example, C:\certs\VS-intermediary-CA.cer. h. Accept the default file data type. i. Click Apply and Save. j. Repeat the preceding steps for each intermediary CA that is part of the certificate chain. In most cases, only one intermediary CA exists.

Receiving a signed certificate issued by a Certificate Authority

When a certificate authority (CA) receives a certificate request, it issues a new certificate that functions as a temporary placeholder for a CA-issued certificate. A keystore receives the certificate from the CA and generates a CA-signed personal certificate that WebSphere Application Server can use for Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) security.

Before you begin

The keystore must contain the certificate request that was created and sent to the CA. Also, the keystore must be able to access the certificate that is returned by the CA.

About this task

IBM WebSphere Application Server can receive only those certificates that are generated by a WebSphere Application Server certificate request. It cannot receive certificates that are created with certificate requests from other keystore tools, such as iKeyman and keyTool. Note: WebSphere Application Server creates the certificate chain when the signed certificate is received. The chain is constructed from the signer certificates that are in the keystore at the time the certificate is received. Be sure to import all intermediate certificates as signer certificates into the keystore before receiving the CA-signed certificate.

Configuring SSL for broadcast communities

You have the option of implementing SSL authentication services for broadcast communities.

About this task

When you install the IBM WebSphere Event Broker, the IBM WebSphere Message Broker also gets installed as a component of the Event Broker. To implement SSL authentication for Lotus Sametime Advanced broadcast communities, you must configure the Message Broker for SSL. The following topics contain instructions for implementing SSL authentication for broadcast communities. For more information see "Implementing SSL authentication" in the WebSphere Message Broker information center at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wmbhelp/v6r0m0/index.jsp.

Creating a keystore file

The keystore file is a key database file that contains both public keys and private keys. Public keys are stored as signer certificates while private keys are stored in the personal certificates. A Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) configuration references keystore configurations during runtime.

About this task

IBM WebSphere Message Broker includes a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) that supplies a keystore manipulation program, which is called keytool. Follow these steps to use keytool to create a new keystore file. Note: Another way to create a new keystore file, is by using the iKeyman certificate management tool. For information on using iKeyman, see "Certificate management using iKeyman" in the WebSphere Application Server information center at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v6r1/index.jsp. 1. Select Start IBM WebSphere Message Broker 6.0 Command Console to open the command console. 2. In the command console, type the following command:keytool

This command displays the help options and therefore validates that the command is working. 3. Type the following command:keytool -genkey -keyalg RSA -keystore .keystore -alias brokerssl -storepass password

v keyalg - The algorithm used in generating the key. If the server is using a DSA key, and the client is using a SSL_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA cipher, you need to use an RSA key on the server.Chapter 5. Configuring

207

v password - The password used for the keystore. You will need to use this password again when you create a password in the next topic "Configuring the broker to use the keystore." v .keystore - The name of the keystore file. Name this file ".keystore" as in the sample command above. It is created in the WebSphere Message Broker home directory (c:\Program Files\IBM\MQSI\6.0\). v brokerssl - The alias is an identifier for the SSL key. The alias is used when you export the certificate for importing into a client's cacerts file. Note: To import a certificate generated by a certificate authority use the -import option instead of the -genkey option. The keytool prompts you for some details that are used to generate certificates. Your details are added to a keystore, if it already exists, or a keystore is created. These values can be set to any values that are required but the properties on the broker must be changed to reflect these values. The -genkey option generates all the certificate files that are required to get HTTPS working but they are not official certificates. You must purchase a real certificate from a certificate authority. Consult your system administrator to find out your company policy for certificate creation. 4. Press Enter when you are prompted for a password. By default, the Enter key signifies the same password for the keystore.

Configuring the broker to use the keystore

The IBM WebSphere Message Broker requires you to set several properties to use a keystore.

Before you begin

Before you begin, verify that the WebSphere Message Broker is running.

About this task

In the previous topic, "Creating a keystore file," you created a keystore file, but so far, the Message Broker does not have any information about the keystore. You need to provide this information so that the Message Broker can find your keystore file and learn the password for it. All of these properties can be set using the mqsichangeproperties command. 1. Create a password file using the password that you created for your keystore in the previous topic, "Creating a keystore file." a. Using a text editor, create a file with a single line containing a password for your keystore. b. Save the file as .keypass in the c:\Program Files\IBM\MQSI\6.0\ directory. 2. Select Start IBM WebSphere Message Broker 6.0 Command Console to open the command console. 3. Set the authentication protocol method to SP. SP allows both S (SSL) and P (Cleartext passwords) in that order. Type the following command:mqsichangeproperties broker service -e default -o DynamicSubscriptionEngine -n clientAuthProtocols -v SP

Where broker service is the name of the broker. This parameter must be the first parameter. For example:mqsichangeproperties BRKR_SCCS -n clientAuthProtocols -v SP -e default -o DynamicSubscriptionEngine

4. To set the name of the keystore file that you are using, enter the following command:

208

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

5. To set the name of the password file that you are using, enter the following command:mqsichangeproperties broker service -e default -o DynamicSubscriptionEngine -n sslPassphraseFile -v "c:\Program Files\IBM\MQSI\6.0\.keypass"

6. Stop and restart WebSphere Message Broker.

Importing self-signed certificates

Importing a certificate is only required for self-signed or unknown CA certificates. This is uncommon and only expected for test environments. A cacerts master file should be configured and copied to other clients to avoid updating the cacerts file on every client.

About this task

The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) has a file named cacerts in the JRE's lib folder that contains a list of Trusted CA's that the JRE uses to negotiate secure connections. Self-signed or unknown CA certificates have to be explicitly imported to the cacerts file in order for IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced to successfully connect using HTTPS. In order to do so, the certificate must be exported by the IBM WebSphere Event Broker machine (the system accepting the HTTPS connection) and imported to the client's Lotus Sametime JRE. Note: The following instructions use the keytool manipulation program provided in the JRE. Another way to import a self-signed certificate, is by using the iKeyman certificate management tool. For information on using iKeyman, see "Certificate management using iKeyman" in the WebSphere Application Server information center at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v6r1/index.jsp. 1. On the Event Broker server, choose Start IBM WebSphere Message Broker 6.0 Command Console to open the command console.keytool -export -keystore "c:\Program Files\IBM\MQSI\6.0\.keystore" -alias brokerssl -file "c:\key.cer"

v .keystore - The name of the keystore file. This file, named ".keystore", was created when you created your keystore. It is created in the WebSphere Message Broker home directory c:\Program Files\IBM\MQSI\6.0\. v brokerssl - The alias is an identifier for the SSL key. The alias, "brokerssl" was created when you created your keystore. The alias is used when you export the certificate for importing into a client's cacerts file. v c:\key.cer - The file name for your exported certificate. When you are prompted, enter the password that you specified when you created the keystore. 2. Copy the c:\key.cer file and distribute it to the appropriate clients. The file should be copied to the c:\ directory of the clients. 3. To import the certificate into the client's JRE, enter the following command from the client's command line:<JRE-path>\bin\keytool -import -keystore "<JRE_path>\lib\security\cacerts" -alias brokerssl -file "c:\key.cer"

JRE_path - The JRE path typically is C:\Program Files\IBM\Lotus\Sametime Connect\rcp\eclipse\plugins\com.ibm.rcp.jcl.desktop.win32.x86_version\ jre v c:\key.cer - The certificate that is being imported into the client keystore. v

4. When you are prompted for the password of the client keystore, enter the following:changeit

This is the default password on every JRE's cacerts file. 5. When your prompted to trust the certificate, enter:yes

Integrating SiteMinder with Lotus Sametime Advanced

Before you begin

Note: IBM recommends that you use the latest available version of the CA eTrust SiteMinder, as well as the latest available hot fix that is certified by Computer Associates to work with the version of the HTTP server that you are using. Use this documentation as a guide, but you will probably need to refer to the SiteMinder documentation, too. SiteMinder uses agents to intercept HTTP requests in Lotus Sametime Advanced, and then forwards them to the SiteMinder Policy Server for authentication. There are two types of SiteMinder agents used when you configure SiteMinder to work with Lotus Sametime Advanced. v Siteminder Web Agent - Installed on the Lotus Sametime Advanced HTTP server and the Lotus Sametime 8 server Web agents control access to Web content and deliver a users security credentials directly to any Web application being accessed by the user. By placing an agent in a Web server that is hosting protected Web content or applications, administrators can coordinate security across a heterogeneous environment of systems and create a single sign-on domain for all users. For Web servers, the Web Agent integrates through each Web servers extension API. It intercepts all requests for resources (URLs) and determines whether each resource is protected by SiteMinder. If the resource is not SiteMinder protected, the request is passed through to the Web server for regular processing. If it is protected by SiteMinder, the Web agent interacts with the policy server to authenticate the user and to determine if access to the specific resource is allowed. v Application Server Agents - Installed on the IBM WebSphere Application Server To secure more finely-grained objects such as servlets, JSPs, or EJB components, which could comprise a full-fledged distributed application, SiteMinder provides

210

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

a family of SiteMinder application server agents (ASAs). ASAs are plug-ins that communicate with the SiteMinder Policy Server to extend single sign-on (SSO) across the enterprise, including J2EE application server-based applications. ASAs also enable SiteMinder to centralize security policy management by externalizing J2EE authorization policies through standard interfaces such as those based on JSR 115.

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

Chapter 6. AdministeringSet up and begin using IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced to let users create and use persistent chat rooms and broadcast communities. After installing the Lotus Sametime Advanced, you can manage user access, enable workflow, set anonymous access, and integrate Lotus Sametime Advanced servers with other products.

Controlling access in Sametime Advanced

You can control access in IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced at the application level or at the feature level.

About this task

You control access at the application level by editing the security role to user/group mappings in the Integrated Solutions Console. This is where you grant administrator privileges to other users, assign workflow approvers, and assign broadcast community creators. IBM does not recommend changing the authenticated user or the all user mappings. You control access at the feature level by editing role settings in the broadcast communities, chat rooms, and folders. v Broadcast communities. Access to broadcast communities is determined by membership role and by broadcast type: public, private, restricted recipient, or restricted publisher. v Chat rooms. Access to chat rooms is determined by assigning roles to folders in the chat room folder hierarchy and by chat room owner/creaters. See the following topics for instructions on controlling access in Sametime Advanced.

Configuring the user access level to Sametime Advanced

Access to IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced is determined by user roles.

Enabling AwarenessEnable the awareness feature in IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced so that Lotus Sametime users can be detected when they are online.

Before you begin

After you have installed your Lotus Sametime Advanced and Lotus SametimeStandard servers, you must establish a connection between them.

About this task

You establish this connection by filling in "Server Integration" fields on the Lotus Sametime Advanced server. 1. Open the Lotus Sametime Advanced server's Administration tab by pointing a browser at the following Web address:http://hostname_or_IPaddress:9080/stadvanced

For example:http://stadv.acme.com:9080/stadvanced

Note: The Web address will resemble the one shown above, but will depend upon your own deployment. 2. Log in to Lotus Sametime Advanced using the administrator account that you created during installation (for example, "stadvadmin"). 3. Click the Administration tab. 4. On the left, click Administration Settings. 5. Now click the Server Integration tab. 6. Enter the Lotus Sametime Standard server's Host name and HTTP port in the designated fields. The HTTP port is typically port 80; however, if you have configured the server to only use SSL, this value will be different (generally port 443). If you do use SSL here, be sure to complete Step 9 below to enable SSL on the port used for supporting the awareness feature in Lotus Sametime Advanced. 7. Click Save. 8. Activate your new settings by logging out and then restarting the browser before you log in again. 9. Determine whether you need to run the updateSTSettings script to modify database settings. You will need to run this script if either (or both) of the following conditions is true for your Lotus Sametime Standard server: v SSL is enabled on the classic server's HTTP port (the port you specified in Step 6) v Tunneling is enabled on the classic server If neither condition is true, you have finished enabling awareness; skip the rest of the steps in this procedure. Next, you should set up a Lotus Sametime Connect client and log in with it to verify that awareness is working. If one (or both) of the conditions is true, proceed to the next step and update database settings for Lotus Sametime Advanced. 10. Download the appropriate version of the updateSTSettings script for your operating system to a server that has access to the Lotus Sametime Advanced

database (the database called "STADV" in this documentation, but if you ran the archive installer on Linux it defaulted to "CHATS"). This script is stored in the \SupportingFiles directory within the Lotus Sametime Advanced software download. Downloading files for Lotus Sametime Advanced and related applications is described in the Download document posted at the following Web address: www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=477&uid=swg24018149. 11. On the machine that has the DB2 client installed or on a DB2 server, open a DB2 Command prompt and connect to the database:db2 connect to database user db2admin_user using password

where: v database is the name of your Lotus Sametime Advanced database (STADV in this documentation, but if you ran the archive installer on Linux it defaulted to "CHATS"). v db2admin_user is the name of a user with DB2 Administrator privileges. v password is the password for the DB2 Administrator account. v stlinks_port is the port being used for awareness on the Lotus Sametime Standard server (normally "8082"). If your classic server has tunneling enabled, set this port to "80" to support that feature. v web_ssl_enable indicates whether Web-based connections to Lotus Sametime Advanced should use SSL ("true" or "false"). If your classic server has SSL enabled, set this value to "true" when you run the script. v applet_ssl_enable indicates whether the Community connection from Lotus Sametime Standard to Lotus Sametime Advanced over port 8082 should use SSL ("true" or "false"). If you set this value to "true" when you run the script, you will need to make additional changes to the classic Lotus Sametime Standard server to support the new setting. For example, enable SSL on Windows by setting the web_ssl_enable to "true":updateSTSettings.bat STADV db2admin passw0rd 8082 true false

Enable tunneling on Windows by setting the stlinks_port to "80":

updateSTSettings.bat STADV db2admin passw0rd 80 false false

If you want to enable both features, you can set both parameters at the same time (you do not have to run the script twice) on Windows:updateSTSettings.bat STADV db2admin passw0rd 80 true false

Updating your LDAP administrator password

If you change the LDAP bind distinguished name DN or bind password of an LDAP repository, you cannot start the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced server anymore because your security credentials no longer match. You must use the IBM WebSphere Application Server wsadmin command line utility to change the password of the repository to match the password in LDAP.

Before you begin

Before you begin, use an LDAP tool to change the password of the LDAP repository. Some LDAP repositories require a stop and start of the LDAP server to change the password.

About this task

Change the password for a repository using the dynamic updateIdMgrLDAPBindInfo command. Use the following steps to change the LDAP bind distinguished name (DN) or bind password of an LDAP repository. 1. Start the wsadmin command line utility. The wsadmin command is found in the install_dir/bin directory. The wsadmin command session must remain running. 2. From the wsadmin prompt, enter the updateIdMgrLDAPBindInfo command to update the LDAP password under the federated repository. The change is also reflected in the wimconfig.xml file.$AdminTask updateIdMgrLDAPBindInfo {-id repository_ID -bindPassword mypassword -bindDN LDAP_bind_DN}

Where: v id - The unique identifier of the repository. For example IDS52. v bindPassword - The LDAP server binding password. v bindDN - The binding distinguished name for the LDAP server. Note that if you include this parameter, the bindPassword is required. 3. From the wsadmin prompt, save your changes to the master configuration. The following command is used to save the master configuration.$AdminConfig save

4. Restart the WebSphere Application Server.

Updating your WAS administrator password

If you change your administrator password in the IBM WebSphere Application Server, you cannot start the IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced server anymore because your security credentials no longer match. Since the primary administrator identity is stored in a file repository, you can run a wsadmin command to update its properties. 1. Start the wsadmin command line utility. The wsadmin command is found in the install_dir/bin directory. The wsadmin command session must remain running.Chapter 6. Administering

Synchronizing Sametime Advanced with Lotus Connections

You can synchronize IBM Lotus Connections communities with IBM Lotus Sametime communities just once, or set up automatic daily synchronization.

About this task

Integration and synchronization is "one-way": from Lotus Connections to Lotus Sametime Advanced. Therefore, users can see their Lotus Connections communities in Lotus Sametime Advanced, but they do not see broadcast communities in Lotus Connections. These communities cannot be edited in Lotus Sametime Advanced; they can only be edited in Lotus Connections. Synchronization does not support HTTP redirection. If the Lotus Connections server is configured to redirect from one port to another, for example from HTTP to HTTPS, then synchronization will fail. You must be an administrator for both Lotus Sametime Advanced and Lotus Connections before you can synchronize the communities. Before you begin, you must grant a Lotus Sametime Advanced administrator access rights to Lotus Connections communities in the community.policy file. See the previous topic for more information. This administrator must also be a member of the LDAP directory. 1. Log in to Lotus Sametime Advanced as an administrator. 2. Click the Administration tab. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Click Administration Settings. Click the Server Integration tab. Click Lotus Connections. Select the protocol type. Type the fully qualified host name in Host name.

About this task

Archiving chat rooms

Administrators, folder managers, and chat room owners can archive chat rooms. Archiving the chat room will place it in the archive view and remove it from other views for all participants.

About this task

When a chat room is archived, it is moved from the Chat Rooms view of the All Chat Rooms tab and placed in the Archived Chat Rooms view. Only administrators, folder managers, and chat room owners with archived chat rooms can see or access the Archived Chat room view. Other users can no longer enter or even see the chat room. If the chat room was in a user's My Chat Rooms tab, then it is removed from that view after it have been archived. If you would rather temporarily suspend participation and end access to a chat room without removing it from the Chat Rooms view, you should disable it instead of archiving it. Follow these steps to archive a chat room. 1. In IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced, click All Chat Rooms. 2. Click the name of the chat room that you want to archive. 3. Click More Actions Archive. 4. When the confirmation message appears, click OK.

Disabling chat rooms

About this task

If you would rather prevent users from entering a chat room as well as automatically removing it from the All Chat Rooms view so that users can no longer see it, you should archive the chat room instead of disabling it. Follow these steps to disable a chat room.Chapter 6. Administering

Backing up user data

All IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced user data is stored in an IBM DB2 database, and can be backed up using the DB2 backup commands.

Before you begin About this task

The default Lotus Sametime Advanced configuration requires that DB2 be shut down for backup. This is because by default, DB2 is configured to reuse the recovery logs. If you want online backup, the database can be configured to archive the recovery logs. In that case, the database is backed up, and all archived recovery logs are backed up. The recovery logs that have been backed up must also be periodically removed. If the database runs out of space to archive the recovery logs, the database will stop accepting changes until space is available. Database backup and recovery is fully outlined in the DB2 information center. See "Developing a backup and recovery strategy" at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/ infocenter/db2luw/v9/index.jsp. The only special backup consideration for Lotus Sametime Advanced is that because the full text indexes are maintained outside of the database tablespaces, after a restore operation the dbtext.sh or dbtext.bat scripts should be run to drop and recreate the text indexes to match the restored data in the database. You can find these scripts at CD1/SupportingFiles/DB2.

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

Chapter 7. TuningComplete the following tuning procedures to enhance performance.

Tuning WebSphere Application Server

When you installed the Lotus Sametime Advanced server software, the IBM WebSphere Application Server was installed automatically. Complete the following tuning procedures to enhance performance of the WebSphere Application Server. Some procedures must be repeated on each server in a cluster.

Setting thread pool values

Set the thread pool values for a IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced server to improve performance. By using a thread pool, server components can reuse existing threads, which helps improve performance by reducing the overhead of creating new threads at run time. 1. From Integrated Solutions Console, click Servers Application Servers stadvanced_server_name, and then under Additional Properties, click Thread Pools. 2. Click New, and then type a name of your choice, such as STADVPool, in the Name field. 3. Type 30 in the Minimum Size field. 4. 5. 6. 7. Type 30 in the Maximum Size field. Keep the default value of 5000 for thread inactivity. Click OK, and click Save to save changes to the master configuration. If Sametime Advanced is clustered, repeat the preceding steps for each node of the cluster.

Tuning the JVM

The IBM WebSphere Application Server is a Java based process and requires a Java virtual machine (JVM) environment to run and support IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced. You can tune the Java runtime environment for performance by turning on verbose garbage collection and setting the heap size.

Note: Solaris does not support this setting.

6. Click OK, and click Save to save changes to the master configuration. 7. If Lotus Sametime Advanced is clustered, repeat the preceding steps for each node of the cluster.

Tuning access to the LDAP server

Set the context pool parameters to improve the performance of concurrent access to an LDAP server.

About this task

The context pool is used in virtual member manager to improve the performance of concurrent access to an LDAP server. Set the context pool parameters in the wimconfig.xml file. Note: The following instructions contain settings that were tested in IBM labs. These are just a starting point. Since your deployment might have a configuration unique to your site, these settings might require more adjustment. 1. Use a text editor to open the wimconfig.xml file.C:\ProgramFiles\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\ST_Advanced_Profile\config \cells\machineNameCell\wim\config\wimconfig.xml

2. Set the following parameters:

Parameter maxPoolSize="200" Description Specifies the maximum number of live connections. If there is no available connection in the pool when the request is submitted, the request waits the number of milliseconds specified in poolTimeOut. After this amount of time has passed, if no connection is available and the current number of live connections is less than the maxPoolSize, a new connection is created. If the total number of live connections is equal to or larger than maxPoolSize, an exception is thrown. Specifies the number of seconds a connection can exist in the connection pool. When requesting a connection from the pool, if this connection already exists in the pool for more than the time defined by poolWaitTime, this connection is closed and a new connection is created for the request. After the connection is used it is returned to the pool. If this parameter is set to 0, a new connection is created for each request and no connection are put into the pool for reuse. If this parameter is set to -1 or any negative number, the connection does not expire and is reused until the connection is turned off (for example by a firewall or a socket timeout). The default value is -1.

poolWaitTime="5000"

242

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

Parameter prefPoolSize="20"

Description Specifies the preferred number of context instances that the context pool will maintain. Context instances that are in use and those that are idle contribute to this number. When there is a request for the use of a pooled context instance and the pool size is less than the preferred size, the context pool creates and uses a new pooled context instance regardless of whether an idle connection is available. When a request finishes with a pooled context instance and the pool size is greater than the preferred size, the context pool closes and removes the pooled context instance from the pool. The valid range for this parameter is from 0 to 100. Setting the value of this parameter to 0 means that there is no preferred size and a request for a pooled context instance results in a newly created context instance only if no idle ones are available. The default value is 3.

3. Save the file.

Tuning the Web container

You can set the time that the HTTP transport channel allows a socket to remain idle between requests.

About this task

The IBM WebSphere Application Server Web container manages all HTTP requests to servlets, JavaServer Pages and Web services. Requests flow through a transport chain to the Web container. WebSphere Application Server will close a given client connection after a number of requests or a timeout period. You can set a value for persistent timeouts to specify the amount of time, in seconds, that the HTTP transport channel allows a socket to remain idle between requests. Note: The following instructions contain settings that were tested in IBM labs. These are just a starting point. Since your deployment might have a configuration unique to your site, these settings might require more adjustment. 1. From Integrated Solutions Console, click Servers Application Servers stadvanced_server_name Web container transport chains WCInboundDefault HTTP inbound channel (HTTP_2). 2. Under General Properties, type 60 in the Persistent timeout field. 3. Click OK.

Tuning securityEnabling security decreases performance. Authentication information persists in the system for a limited amount of time before it expires and must be refreshed. Use the following procedure to tune performance without compromising your security settings.

Tuning DB2IBM DB2 is a database management system that stores information used by IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced. A database that has the potential to grow large will require some ongoing tuning by a database administrator.

About this task

The full text indexing required by Lotus Sametime Advanced adds some additional considerations. The text indexing service must be started and stopped when the database is started and stopped. The command to start the database instance on all platforms is:db2start

The command to start the NSE service is:

db2text start

To stop the database instance, run:

db2stop

To stop the NSE service, run:

db2text stop

Note: DB2 scripts are stored in the \SupportingFiles directory within the Lotus Sametime Advanced software download. Periodically, as the dataset grows, the database administrator should reorganize the objects that need attention, and update the statistics so that the DB2 optimizer can make optimal plans for accessing the data. There is an example script provided that can do this named stadv_reorg.sql. This file will reorganize the indexes that are most likely to require it and will update the statistics in the catalog. This script or one like it should be run periodically when the system is lightly loaded, as it will lock the tables as it runs. The commands to run this script are:db2 connect to <dbname> db2 tf stadv_reorg.sql

The database administrator should monitor the DMS tablespaces and add additional storage as needed. The default tablespace creation scripts allow the tablespaces to automatically grow to a set size. This set size can be changed, or additional files can be added to the tablespace as needed. After the tablespace has enough data to be representative of a complete dataset, the database administrator might want to enable compression for the PERSISTENTCHATTEXT table. There is an example script provided for doing this. The commands to run this script are:db2 connect to <dbname> db2 tf enable_compression.sql

244

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

On a large dataset, this might take significant time to compress all of the table data. This will not compress the data in the text indexes, which will still take significant storage. The database administrator may wish to do additional maintenance on the full text indexes that are maintained outside of the database. The text indexes can be altered after they are created to modify the frequency of updates. Incremental commits can be configured if the update transactions become too large, and the indexes can be reorganized. See the NSE documentation for more information: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9/index.jsp. If for any reason, a text index becomes corrupted, re-running dbtext.bat or dbtext.sh will drop all text indexes and recreate them. An additional consideration is that dropping a database does not automatically drop the text indexes. If the database administrator decides to drop a database that contains text indexes, he should run the script dropdbtext.bat or dropdbtext.sh to drop the text indexes first. If the indexes are not dropped, entries for them should be cleaned out of the DB2 ctedem.dat file. Full documentation about this is in the NSE documentation.

Tuning IBM HTTP Server

About this task

Monitoring the CPU utilization and checking the IBM HTTP Server error_log and http_plugin.log files can help you diagnose Web server performance problems. Web servers allocate a thread to handle each client connection. Ensuring that enough threads are available for the maximum number of concurrent client connections helps prevent this tier from being a bottleneck. Check the error_log file to see if there are any warnings about having reached the maximum number of clients. The settings for the Web server can be tuned by making changes to the httpd.conf file on the Web server system. Using the Integrated Solutions Console, go to Servers Web Servers web_server_name Configuration file.

Setting open file limits in Linux

If you have a high volume of users logged in to IBM Lotus Sametime Advanced running on a Linux server, you might encounter too many files exception messages.

This problem is caused when a high number of concurrent users get a connection to the Lotus Sametime Advanced server. Java opens many files and Lotus Sametime Advanced uses a lot of file descriptors. Eventually, the server runs out of file descriptors. You can fix this by editing the file descriptor limit in the limits configuration file in Linux. 1. Use a text editor and open /etc/security/limits.conf. 2. Add the following lines to set these limits for all users.* * soft hard nofile nofile 65535 65535

3. Save the file. 4. Stop and restart the machine running the server.

Gathering logs and traces for IBM support

Use the IBM Websphere Collector tool to gather logs and traces that IBM Customer Support can use when troubleshooting your problem.

About this task

The collector tool gathers information about your WebSphere Application Server installation and packages it in a Java archive (JAR) file that you can send to IBM Customer Support to assist in determining and analyzing your problem. Information in the JAR file includes logs, property files, configuration files, operating system and Java data, and the presence and level of each software prerequisite. 1. Use the IBM Websphere Collector tool to gather logs and traces from all of the environment machines. For information on using the Websphere Collector tool, see the WebSphere information center at the following Web address (formatted here for readability): http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v6r1/topic/ com.ibm.websphere.nd.doc/info/ae/ae/ttrb_runct.html 2. Run the collector on each of the computers in the Lotus Sametime Advanced deployment. Notes v On each machine, run collector once for each of the WebSphere Application Server profiles. The profiles are stored in the \profiles directory; for example on Microsoft Windows:C:\Program Files\ibm\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles

v The collector resides in the \bin directory below the profile; for example:C:\Program Files\ibm\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\ST_Advanced_Profile\bin\collector.bat

The output from each execution of the collector is placed in your current working directory, and includes the name of the profile on which it was run using the format:myHostName-MyCellName-MyNodeName-ST_Advanced_Profile-WASenv.jar

Copyright IBM Corp. 2007, 2010

247

Note: The generated files will include all log files located in the "logs" directory under the profile directory. To reduce the log size, you might choose to delete all of the existing log files, recreate the problem, and only then gather the logs. 3. Submit the collector generated log files to IBM support.

Setting a diagnostic trace on a server

You can specify how the server handles Lotus Sametime Advanced log records. You can also specify a log detail level for components and groups of components. 1. Log in to the Integrated Solutions Console as a WebSphere administrator at http://yourserver.company.com:9060/admin). Note: The port might be 9061 instead of 9060. 2. Click Troubleshooting --> Logs and Trace. 3. Click the Sametime Advanced server that you want to trace. 4. Under General Properties, click Change Log Detail Levels. 5. Select the Runtime tab. 6. Use the following table to determine what type of logging that you want to enable. The table lists the components that you would typically choose. This list of components is not complete. Other components might be chosen depending on the issue being tracked.Type of logging Persistence General Administration page logging Chat Community Skill tap LDAP Choose this detail level com.ibm.sametime.persistence.* com.ibm.rtc.servlet.* com.ibm.rtc.polled.* com.ibm.collaboration.services.* com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.bcs.skilltap.services.

Troubleshooting using JVM logs

To start troubleshooting a problem, check the JVM log files first. These log files collect output for the System.out and System.err output streams for the application server process. One log file is specified for the SystemOut.log output stream and one file specified for the SystemErr.log output stream.

About this task

An application can write print data to the JVM logs either directly in the form of System.out.print() or System.err.print() method calls or by calling a JVM function,

248

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

such as Exception.printStackTrace(). In addition, the System.out JVM log contains system message events written by the WebSphere Application Server. In the case of a IBM WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment configuration, JVM logs are also created for the deployment manager and each node manager, since they also represent JVMs. v SystemOut.log is more useful monitoring the health of the running application server but can help in determining a problem, although it's better to use the IBM Service log and the advanced capabilities of the Log Analyzer to determine a problem. v SystemErr.log contains exception stack trace information that is useful when performing problem analysis. The JVM log files are self-managing to the extent that they can be configured not to grow beyond a certain size. Also, you can set how many historical, or archived, files to keep and which of the log files to rollover or archive based by time or size or both. 1. In the Integrated Solutions Console, click Troubleshooting --> Logs and Trace. 2. Click the Sametime Advanced server name. 3. Under General Properties, click JVM Logs. Note: Any configuration changes to the JVM logs that are made to a running Sametime Advanced server do not take effect until you restart the server. Any log and trace settings that you change in the Runtime tab take effect without restarting, but do not take effect once you restart unless you also made those changes in the Configuration tab. 4. To configure or change a log setting, use the settings on the Configuration tab. 5. To view the output of the logs, click the Runtime tab, then click View.

If the JVM arguments are incorrect, you must modify the genericJvmArguments attribute of the jvmEntries element of server.xml. You could leave it blank, to eliminate all errors, or try modifying the value of the attribute until it is correct. Two value here are the heap sizes. These values are set when you set the JVM garbage collection policy. But you can set them set

Chapter 8. Troubleshooting

249

them in the server.xml as well. These values are the initialHeapSize with a recommended value of 1024, and maximumHeapSize, set to a recommended value of 1280. 3. Save the file and restart the server.

Troubleshooting Event Broker password changes

If you have changed the password that is used either as the password for the ServiceUserId or DataSourceUserId for any of the IBM WebSphere Event Broker components, for example a remote DB2 server, you might find these components have access problems.

250

Lotus Sametime Advanced: Installation and Administration Guide

About this task

The ServiceUserID is the user ID under which the broker runs; the DataSourceUserID is the user ID with which the databases containing broker tables and user data are to be accessed. You must re-configure the Event Broker and the Configuration Manager to reflect password changes for these users. The Configuration Manager is the central runtime component that manages the components and resources that constitute the broker domain. Use the mqsichangebroker command for changing the password on the Event Broker, and the mqsichangeconfigmgr command for changing the password on the Configuration Manager. For more information on passwords and using these commands, see "Have you recently changed a password?" in the Event Broker information center at:publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wmbhelp/v6r0m0/index.jsp

1. Stop the Event Broker. 2. Open a command line on the Event Broker server. 3. Type the following command:mqsichangebroker broker_name -a new_service_user_id_password -p db_user_id_password

If you are only changing one password, for example, the DataSourceUserID password, you can use the same command:mqsichangebroker broker_name -p db_user_id_password

4. Restart the Event Broker for the changes to take effect. 5. Stop the Configuration Manager. 6. Open a command line on the Event Broker server. 7. Type the following command:mqsichangeconfigmgr configuration_manager_name -a <new_service_user_id_password
